Earlier during Leaders' Questions, my party leader, Deputy Adams, asked the Taoiseach if the Minister for Justice and Equality would clarify tonight his role in overseeing the Ian Bailey case over the last number of years and, in particular, if he would deal with the correspondence that was sent to him by Ian Bailey and a legal team in 2012 about their concerns relating to the failure of the Garda Commissioner to co-operate fully with, and give documentation to, the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission. It is very disappointing that the Taoiseach has not ensured that the Minister would avail of the opportunity to clarify his role in that. I will take the Minister through it when I can get his attention.
