I thank all of the witnesses for attending this afternoon's meeting to assist us in our deliberations on Garda oversight. Some of the witnesses who appeared before us a couple of weeks queried whether the separation of the confidential recipient and GSOC was a good or bad thing. Perhaps Baroness O'Loan and the acting Garda Commissioner will comment on whether they believe the confidential recipient should come under the auspices of GSOC or if it should be completely separate.
