People often say, "I have never seen anything like that", but we have really seen nothing like this report, in Ireland or the world. It would be criminally negligent if its recommendations were not implemented. Dr. Shannon's statement that he would not have been able to do this by relying on the data in PULSE alone is utterly damning and sums up the systemic problems we have seen in other aspects of policing with which this committee has been dealing. I can picture Dr. Shannon in the room with all the files and without his obsessiveness we would not have got here. The timing is important because An Garda Síochána will be before us next week, although not on this matter.
