Mr. Peter Whelan:

I not aware of any. That is not to say there are not any, but they would be small in number. I can check that for the Deputy, but I am not aware of any.

The Garda publishes figures on use of force. It is about 1,000 per month. They have cases documented for use of force but we do not receive them.
