It seems there are two possibilities. There is the possibility that it was an oversight. I will allow people to judge whether that is a likely possibility. It is difficult perhaps to put ourselves in that situation. It was either a conscious or an unconscious decision. If it was an unconscious one, it was an oversight. If it was a conscious one, there was a deliberate decision not to consult the Garda data analysis service. I am not sure what third and further possibilities exist beyond that. Does Mr. Nugent have any response to that?
