I have a final question on something Dr. O'Flaherty said about whistleblowers, not just confined to members of An Garda Síochána in Garda stations but to others, like himself, who would have had professional access and would have perhaps observed abuses happening. Is he or anybody, including the AGSI, aware of an internal whistleblowers charter? I wrote to the former Garda Commissioner, Mr. Callinan, before his departure seeking a copy of it. I have not been able to find a copy of any whistleblowers charter within the Garda. Does one exist?
