There was reference in the newspapers to superintendents investigating Garda personnel, which is probably not an ideal situation. It is alleged that GSOC was not made aware of some of the investigations yet it is the body tasked with address of wrongdoing within An Garda Síochána. There is wrongdoing in every force and walk of life that needs to be weeded out. Does Mr. Harris accept that An Garda Síochána should not be investigating gardaí and that GSOC has a role to play in disciplinary matters within An Garda Síochána?
