Okay. I understand what the deputy commissioner said but I do not accept it. I have made my point and people are well aware of the contradiction in relation to the actions of An Garda Síochána based on three different reports.

The Garda Síochána receives funding from the Road Safety Authority, RSA, and the National Transport Authority, NTA, for enforcement operations etc.. Down through the years, both agencies have engaged in various campaigns in which the Garda Síochána has participated. Does the Garda Síochána owe those agencies money in relation to those campaigns? All of the statistics to justify the spending of X in each campaign are based on false statistics. I presume the Garda Síochána is aware of this. Has work commenced in An Garda Síochána in regard to how much money is owed to the RSA and NTA? Given that we now know that the statistics in relation to these campaigns are garbage what process is being put in place in respect of the payment of moneys owed to the RSA and NTA?
