Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Garda Homicide Statistics: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Ms Lois West:

No; I do not believe there was any disagreement at the time on the methodology used. It only became clear when we saw the report coming through. It had not really been discussed at the meetings. To us, it felt more as if there was pressure from somewhere to get the report across the line and to have something delivered, but, as we said, we could not agree with it. We stood firm and did not agree to sign off on it.
