Pre-legislative Scrutiny of the General Scheme of Companies (Corporate Enforcement Authority) Bill 2018: Discussion General Scheme of an Employment Permits (Consolidation and Amendment) Bill
Mr. Ian Drennan:
I will take the second part of that question and then I will ask my colleague, Mr. McGill, the aforementioned digital forensics specialist, to talk about the warrants and the IT aspects that the Deputy referenced. Leaving aside HR, finance and so on, to which the Deputy alluded, we have indicated that we will need, by way of additional resourcing of the corporate enforcement authority, a new digital forensics professional who would work with Mr. McGill, another legal professional to work alongside the lawyers we currently have and one administrative support officer to assist them and, in terms of additional gardaí, one additional detective sergeant and eight additional detective gardaí. Can I ask Mr. McGill to deal with the first part of the Deputy's question?
