On a national basis as far as I can see 300 fines a day have been terminated. To me, that is systemic, whether Mr. Callinan likes it or not. If Mr. Callinan says that is unsuitable to be discussed here I suggest that it is perhaps unsuitable to be discussed by the Garda Síochána as well because the finger is being pointed at Mr. Callinan and Assistant Commissioner O’Mahoney. It is saying their force is indulging this practice and it is taking place on their watch. The people who should make judgments on that surely should be somebody else, some independent body.
