I thank the Chairman and I thank Mr. Olson for the report. One of my questions was about rosters but I have no wish to ask Mr. Olson to repeat everything. Having spoken to gardaí, I gather the rosters they were working were not humane or family-orientated. Gardaí would do a late shift from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. and then come off a shift at 10 p.m. and go home only to be back in on an early shift the following morning at 6 a.m. To my mind it is not right for people to work like that and I am unsure how it could have been effective from an investigation point of view. Can Mr. Olson clarify exactly what is wrong with the times and why it does not work for investigation purposes?
