Mr. Brendan Gleeson:
I am not sure that we do. One of the lessons to be learned from this, and other cases, is that we need to have a more systematic approach to making these determinations. That is being worked on at the moment. If we do not do so, we leave our officers who make these decisions, with the best of intentions, exposed. I accept that we need a more systematic approach and that is being developed as we speak, in part as a result of the lessons learned from some of these cases.
