This is supposed to be a public forum to help. This module today is part of a process to deal with oversight and accountability in respect of An Garda Síochána. We have had the oversight bodies in here. They have made observations and have not been as reticent in their answers. Nobody is asking the Commissioner to deal with individual cases but the questions are valid. If the Commissioner wants to comment on that she can. There is nothing wrong with figures. These figures are in the public domain at the end of annual reports and all the rest of it. I do not know why the Commissioner could not tell us how many protected disclosures she has received, as distinct from those which have gone to GSOC.
