Ms Josephine Feehily:

They are certainly behind. To be fair, this was very new for the Garda. Even though the legal framework expected that there would be performance targets, there had not been. The Garda might have been a little over-ambitious in agreeing. We were very keen that we would have a basis for measuring the measures. There has been a learning along the way by the Garda as well because I do not believe it anticipated the monthly follow-ups and the checking. Perhaps the Garda was not used to it.
