Mr. Simon O'Brien:

Had we got to that threshold and had it been in any way indicated that it might have been a member of An Garda Síochána, I would have gone straight to the Minister for Justice and Equality and reported my concerns, and we would then have taken it from there. Had we had indications that the surveillance had come from another party and had that party been identified, I would have gone to the Garda Commissioner and passed on the investigation to An Garda Síochána.
