The replies are quite lengthy and have not necessarily been responses to my questions. Perhaps that is something to bear in mind. Regarding children and the recommendations made by the special rapporteur on child protection, Dr. Geoffrey Shannon, who appeared before the committee last week, he said he has had no contact from the Policing Authority, which I found astounding, particularly given that Ms Feehily said in her introductory remarks that she has highlighted the area of children. It is eight months since his report came out. He made suggestions regarding the changes that An Garda Síochána need to implement and could implement in many instances straight away. His suggestions concerned the templates, mandatory PULSE reporting and so on. How many of them have been acted on, and what level of interaction has the Policing Authority had with An Garda Síochána to make sure they have been implemented? I think he made 17 recommendations. How many have actually been implemented so far?
