Missing pages of PSNI notebook contained details of 42 officers and staff, say police

Quick Glance: PSNI Notebook Pages with Officer and Staff Details Found Missing, Police Confirm

Missing sections of a PSNI notebook that were lost during a car journey contained information about 42 officers and staff, as confirmed by the police.

The incident took place on a section of the M2 motorway in North Belfast on Thursday, when a laptop and a notebook fell from a police vehicle.

The incident occurred just one week after the PSNI confirmed a significant data breach, where personal details of over 10,000 officers and staff were unintentionally published online.

The policing board, responsible for overseeing the PSNI, will hold a follow-up meeting on Tuesday to receive an update on the data breach and consider further necessary actions.

Quick Glance: Honoring the Dublin Lockout

James Plunkett portrayed the heroic nature of the 1913 story in Strumpet City, solidifying James Larkin's place in the popular consciousness.

When Jim Larkin arrived in Dublin in 1908, he was 32 years old.

Dublin may seem an unlikely city for a union organizer, but for Larkin, it presented an opportunity rather than an obstacle.

In 1911, Dublin newsboys went on strike, demanding better terms from the Irish Independent and other publications.
