I do not think Senator Martin Conway is suggesting in his questioning that it has been the case, but he is underlining his view and a significant swathe of public opinion and concern about the fact that all of this has happened. Its extent has been shocking. People with the confidence of a lifetime in An Garda Síochána have been left reeling and are questioning that confidence. We need to get to a position where full confidence will be restored. The Senator is progressing his questioning in that regard.
