Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality
Garda Oversight and Accountability: Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission
9:00 am
Ms Justice Mary Ellen Ring:
We have given the committee our proposals. We want the ability to share information which does not breach other legislative provisions. As I said, I understand the Policing Authority had sought similar permission to share information because it also receives information under the Protected Disclosures Act. The Department also receives information under that Act. At the moment, the three bodies cannot discuss those cases even though we know the other bodies have received the same information.
