I thank the witnesses for coming before us. I know they have covered a lot of ground with my colleagues so far. I have a couple of points I wish to touch on, and I will try not to go over issues that have been dealt with already.

My first question is more relevant to Ms West who has been working with An Garda Síochána for ten years.

What the witnesses have described of this sequence of events to us is very disturbing. Is this a completely isolated incident in Ms West's ten years working with An Garda Síochána or is it part of any pattern or any previous incidents of a similar nature with which she is familiar?
