If matters arose and were recorded on paper and someone was aware of them but did not act, it would also be an issue. Everyone is in the dock, including the Accounting Officer and all other ranks who have dealt with Templemore. What has changed in the chain of command within the Garda that allowed this to happen? If something happened now, how could we be sure that it would be acted upon differently? I am concerned because many people who are potentially in senior positions did not act on cases in 2011.
