The Garda may be getting some of them but the point is that where what happens in such cases is not reported, those involved are getting away with committing crimes. I take the point that the Garda does not supervise the courts and so on. The Houses of the Oireachtas place the onus on the insurance industry and the companies involved to pass the relevant information to the Garda. In cases where it is beyond the balance of probability and where there has already been adjudication in a court of law, is failure to report not contrary to section 19 in terms of open disclosure?
