I have two other questions. Is it possible to quantify the misclassification of the data that can be put down to weaknesses with PULSE, human error or other factors? Could Ms West give an indication as to the origin of the misclassification?

We need to focus on how we move on from this point. In addition to the review continuing and reaching a conclusion, what should the committee, the Policing Authority and An Garda Síochána be doing to rectify the matter and to ensure it is not repeated?
