Joint Oireachtas Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions

Security and Protocol Issues: Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission

6:35 pm

Mr. Simon O'Brien:

We are at a disadvantage. I can only suspect that a document that might be marked “secret” that was solely in our possession is now out in the public sphere. We should wait to see what might come forward but it is very much worthwhile to say that I can see difficulties in those documents in terms of accuracy and in terms of my thoughts and decision processes. Whether at some time in the future that will be subject to further examination by Deputies or anyone else then I will clearly always assist and come forward to provide clarity and openness in that regard.
