An inquiry was announced recently by the Government, with an independent panel of seven barristers examining complaints into Garda activities. Has the Garda Síochána been involved in this? Has it been given the list of 200 complaints and does it know what is being investigated? I do not need to know the details of any of the cases. There are 250 cases concerning the Garda Síochána some of them go back through the years we are talking about. Does the lack of resources contribute to some of the issues and to some matters not being investigated fully, resulting in people not being happy? Has there been a reinvestigation or is it being done externally? What right of access have the people who will carry out the investigation to confidential Garda data information?
