I would dispute that what Mr. Finn has described is a joint team. Mr. Finn told us that the analysts were asked to conduct a comprehensive analysis, so they started to do that and in November 2016 they said they could not take this any further without the case files. As Mr. Finn said, they set up a joint committee to look at the full files but it is not a joint committee; it is the Garda which will look at the files. That ties in with Deputy Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire's earlier question.
