On the protocols and the commission's report, the time delays, which were outrageous, shocked the public and members of this committee. Has that situation improved? Most of this information is routine stuff. Have the witnesses stopped getting letters back saying the information is not relevant? Presumably, it is out of order, in terms of any request for information the commission makes to the Garda, for it to write back saying it is not relevant. That is not its job. Has that stopped? Have the delays improved and, if not, can any practical measure be taken that can unlock that?
