I do not know how the witnesses have remained sane. Since 2012, this committee has dealt with many different policing issues. We, as committee members, have found it mind-boggling that nobody has been held to account for what they did. People just say, "We will learn from that and now we will move on." It is incredibly worrying that there is no accountability. Let us say that the witnesses had the authority to hold people to account for some of the poor decision-making that has taken place at a higher level. In terms of dealing with all of the issues that they have raised, how can we hold people to account for their actions?
