Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Spent Convictions: Discussion

Ms Fíona Ní Chinnéide:

It is a huge gap. The position now is that the Department of Justice and Equality has strongly recognised the need for evidence-informed policy. The Department is investing in data research and this is most welcome. There is a new Government chief information officer within the Department of Justice and Equality. There is a new strategy. It is all positive. This is one of the things we would like to see the Department undertake.
