I do not mean to be rude, but I am conscious of time, and I have to ask the team to try to answer the question they were asked. In November 2015, as Assistant Commissioner Mr. Michael Finn has already stated, the Garda had the information from the Medical Bureau of Road Safety audit. I know that. The question is why did the Garda wait until April 2016 even to put in place a paper audit, where the person would be checked going in and going out? The second question is why the Garda waited for another full year, as in last week, to ask the Medical Bureau of Road Safety for that information, when it had it all along? The reason I am asking these questions comes back to what the Assistant Commissioner Mr. Michael Finn said earlier about data. Mr. Finn has apologised for data. Can he understand how difficult it is for us to accept any data from the Garda Síochána, given what we have heard? Will the Garda team answer those two questions? I have a further question relating to data, but I am conscious of time. The team need to try to answer the question asked.
