I thank the Minister and his officials for attending this morning. In terms of CEPOL, I note that the merger was rejected by the Ministers. Could the Minister elaborate on the reason for the rejection of the merger? If we are successful in having CEPOL located in the Garda training college in Templemore, what benefit will it be to us?
