The Commissioner said that everything might not be perfect, but in her opening address she painted a pretty picture as if everything was excellent and that we should not be worried about too much. However, Garda indiscipline and underperformance at management levels and senior rank were identified by both the Guerin report and the Garda Inspectorate report last year. The O'Higgins report did not look great for the force either. Does the Commissioner not believe that things are not quite as rosy as she has painted them?
