I want to go back to another point. Assistant Commissioner O'Sullivan mentioned that there was no performance management regarding mandatory alcohol testing checkpoints and that they were based on reducing road deaths. This is mentioned in many of the Garda's policing plans. In correspondence with the justice committee, Assistant Commissioner O'Sullivan has said the results of breath-testing were not used as a performance indicator. He has also said the results of road-testing were not used as a performance indicator. Is it the case that neither was used as performance indicators?
