Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Garda Oversight: Discussion

2:50 pm

Mr. Robert K. Olson:

There is information on our website. We have status implementation tables that we arbitrarily set down. Thus far the Garda Síochána has sent us updates. We put them up with the timelines along with when the recommendations are supposed to be done, the reasons they are not being done or the reason they have been kicked down the road and so on. That is the only way we do it. This is why we put in a request to make the process firmer in order that we can go back and determine why something is taking so long. There is a mechanism to keep track of this on our website. We try to make it transparent so that anyone can look it up. This is why we would like to have more power behind it.
