The Minister has a fantastic relationship with the PSNI and Garda Síochána. I was delighted to see the Deputy Chief Constable of the PSNI come down and made a contribution. At the time, information was passed over to the Garda Síochána. When the PSNI and Garda Síochána work so closely together, it is important that something be done with any information that is obtained. In fairness, the Garda Commissioner informed me at our previous meeting that the information he gave to the Government at the time cannot really be carried forward because of his new role as Garda Commissioner. I want to make sure today that whatever information is passed between the PSNI and Garda Síochána is acted upon. This is important. On behalf of Tom Oliver's family, the Government has serious information. It knows who directed the murder of Tom Oliver. What will happen going forward from today?
