Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Policing Issues: An Garda Síochána

Mr. Michael Finn:

I can say there has been no significant increase in the number of people who have come to us since those cases. Where they have engaged with us, they are dealing with our legal section. If compensation cases are being pursued, they will be with the State Claims Agency. With regard to any of the solicitors who have engaged with us in regard to such cases, we are in the process of appealing those cases. Cases are listed all through this December and in January and February of next year. In fact, almost 2,000 cases are scheduled for appeal between now and the end of January.
