To be fair to the Commissioner, I have asked this question in numerous ways now and I am still not getting a clear answer. Members of the public, who are watching proceedings, need to know, as a result of what they have seen here, that Ms O'Sullivan has full confidence in every way in each and every one of the management team in An Garda Síochána. I need to know this, as the person who is chairing this meeting. I have gone through thousands of pages of documents and have seen contradictions all over the place. I have seen issues with interpersonal relationships - we all have, in fairness - and evidence that is contradictory. It is imperative that Ms O'Sullivan honestly answers the question whether she has full confidence in each and every one of them given what has transpired before the Committee of Public Accounts on this issue.
