There is a dispute between the Minister and X, formerly Twitter. There are two sides to every dispute but I understand from the Minister's statements, and she may clarify this as I may be wrong, that she was communicating what was told to her by a garda in Pearse Street station on the non-co-operation or inadequate co-operation of X. Was that ever communicated in writing and was it wise in such a febrile atmosphere to make such statements as she did on the basis of a verbal statement rather than a written outline of the failures of X, as seen by An Garda?
