I thank Mr. Herrick. That is very helpful. When An Garda Síochána was before us it was clear that we did not have enough data on the breakdown of resources. Some unit that was supposed to be set up was going to be set up next year.

With regard to Dara Quigley, the failure to hold anyone to account in that matter goes to the heart of what we are talking about. Things happen but something must be done about them. However, nothing was done about that. I am not going into the personal details but it would be remiss of me not to mention the case. I am grateful it was highlighted.
