Ms Brigid Quilligan:

I would concur with what my colleague Dr. Hogan has said. Certainly we would see that there is a gap in training. The call-outs for us to provide training have decreased. I cannot say whether that is resource-driven. There is a huge need for it because we find that there is an attitude to minorities within the Garda, not among the majority but among certain gardaí, that is really unhealthy at times. Good, consistent training can overcome that. We would be fully in support of more training for the gardaí.
