Mr. Hugh Hume:
I will take that. If it is an internal matter, if it is theft in a Garda station from gardaí, that would not come to us as a complaint because the gardaí cannot report a matter to us if they are the victims. That would be dealt with by the Garda Commissioner. Our complaints have to come from members of the public and we would seldom investigate a theft from a Garda station.
