Garda Homicide Statistics: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Ms Laura Galligan:

Ms West and I want every death to be classified, recorded and investigated correctly. This is not a statistical issue for victims and their families. We never said it was. We understand the importance of working with the Central Statistics Office, CSO, but victims and their families are at the heart of this and that is what has driven us to do this through the pressure we experienced for a 15 month period.
