I have a final question for Dr. O'Flaherty. Is it his view that some sections within the Garda Síochána were hostile to certain sectors of society? He mentioned poor, disadvantaged and deprived areas and also a young child with a disability. Does he feel the Garda needs to up its game in regard to respecting certain sections of society and does it need to do more to make itself more objective and professional? What is his broad view on that?
