Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Garda Oversight and Accountability: Policing Authority

9:00 am

Ms Josephine Feehily:

What we do is assess the quality of the intelligence received which almost all of the time relates to a matter appropriate to the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission. We have no function and nowhere to go with it and refer it on. If it does not relate to a matter appropriate to GSOC, we seek to get it on the record in order that we can interrogate it openly, publicly and officially. That is the way we handle it.
