I would like to welcome the commissioners and recognise their independence also.

Have routine security checks been carried out in the past other than the security check that revealed three anomalies? If those previous security checks revealed anomalies, what action was taken on foot of that?

Regarding meetings the commissioners would have with the Minister, the Garda Commissioner and the Secretary General, to name three, do they take place regularly? Mr. O'Brien may not be able to answer this question, but would he inform people such as that of security concerns or checks?

Mr. O'Brien spoke about referring matters to the Minister. Did he take legal advice on that prior to not referring the matter to the Minister?
