Ms Nóirín O'Sullivan:

Yes, I am confident that improvements have been put in place. This is one of the challenges that police forces the world over engage in. What we have done, and I can ask Mr. Singh and Assistant Commissioner Nolan who both have various responsibilities in this area to comment. One of the things we are doing, which feeds into civilianisation is the recruitment of a data quality manager, which will greatly assist in the process. We have also implemented new technical changes to our systems. Members will see that in the most recent report from the CSO there is a recognition of the improvements that have been made but there is still a way to go. There is no doubt about that.

As well as technical changes there are the people issues. The people issues are around the increased training, the awareness and the supervisory management that Deputy Jim O'Callaghan raised.
