Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Functioning of the Department of Justice and Equality: Department of Justice and Equality

9:00 am

Mr. John O'Callaghan:

I could not say definitely. The way the system works is submissions are prepared, they go to the Minister, the Minister approves them, the Minister brings a memo to the Government and the Government decides. I cannot remember how many submissions are prepared but it is tens or perhaps hundreds of them. On a specific issue such as this I suspect there may have been but I could not be definitive.
