I shall finish with a short question. The Commissioner, in her statement to the committee this morning, mentioned the anonymous nature of the complaint made by a person who claimed to be a Reservist in 2014, which was sent to the Road Safety Authority, the then Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, the then Minister for Justice and Equality and the Commissioner herself. She mentioned in her remarks that the fact the source of the document was unidentified was a hindrance. Can she clarify why unidentified information was a hindrance to the investigation that ensued?
