Ms Nóirín O'Sullivan:

It links into Deputy Chamber's question on the chain of command and also to Deputy Daly's question. We have a chain of command. This job was given to the deputy commissioner, who gave it to the assistant commissioner in traffic. In the roads policing bureau as it is now, which was the traffic bureau then, there are various people who and structures that deal with various issues. As the assistant commissioner outlined earlier, we understand the issues raised by Professor Cusack related to the procurement of mouthpieces for the Drager units. I can ask Assistant Commissioner Finn to deal with it in more detail again. It was dealt with by the traffic policy bureau department. Professor Cusack did not correspond with me or communicate with me. He and his staff communicated with people in the traffic policy bureau.
