It should not have happened but it did happen and the Garda is dealing with it. However, there has to be an end to it and there has to be an update. What is it costing in terms of manpower and womanpower and in terms of the cost of the legal eagles? Let us have an update on that.

On the breath tests and the hugely significant discrepancy, which I will not go back over as that is a matter of record, where are we in that regard? What improvements have been made? Has the Garda reconciled its data with the data recorded on the machines?
