The problem with that answer is that according to the Crowe Horwath report, the Garda Inspectorate's report made 37 recommendations, of which the working group has implemented 22, yet in the internal report, the assistant commissioner stated he was not even aware the working group was in place. Senior Garda management were not aware, yet this was a working group that involved An Garda Síochána in a fixed charge penalty process review. Crowe Horwath stated 22 recommendations had been implemented, whereas the internal report stated the group had not been meeting and hardly any recommendations had been implemented. Does Assistant Commissioner O'Sullivan understand the difficulty members are having at these meetings?
