Mr. Michael Finn:

It is not a fair interpretation of what actually happened. When the analysts brought the 41 cases to the team that was initially set up to examine those investigations, the team considered what information had been recorded on PULSE, which was the information that was causing the issue for analysts. That team told the investigating teams that what had been recorded on PULSE did not make sense in light of what the analysts had shown, asked whether the cases in question had been investigated and asked how the investigations had turned out. As my colleague, Mr. Sutton, mentioned, an investigation can start off when, for an example, an ambulance is called to pick someone up at the side of the street. We do not know how that person died, but we are called by the hospital about the death and gardaí go along and investigate. During the course of that investigation, we might discover that the person was assaulted.
