Mr. Noel Waters:
In respect of 2006, my information is that we had no knowledge of that report. In respect of 2008, in the course of An Garda Síochána preparing for the meeting of the committee, it found a document on file that indicated that the then Commissioner, Mr. Fachtna Murphy, spoke briefly to the then Secretary General some time in June 2008 about issues in the Garda training centre. I know that my colleague Mr. John O'Callaghan referenced this last week.
