I want to point to the work of two retired members supporting the disclosures tribunal co-ordination office, which is based in Garda Headquarters. The office has one full-time member. It has seconded that person temporarily from the Office of Corporate Communications. A number of additional personnel are facilitating the work on an ad hocbasis. Liaison persons have also been nominated from the relevant sections to deal with specific requests for the tribunal in accordance with those requests. It is understood that one of the re-hired former members has recently left that position and the other contract will terminate this week in accordance with the sanction, but I assure the Deputy that the work within the office is proceeding as demands.
