I refer specifically to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform’s report, which made reference to the methods of evaluating where the organisation is achieving the objectives and targets. Ms Clifford has touched on the financial elements but I mean the operational element as to the investigations of crimes, such as domestic violence or cybercrime, and the convictions as a result of those investigations. How does An Garda Síochána conduct its yearly evaluation on meeting these key metrics? Are these data presented to senior management? I seek an understanding of this in order that we can get value for money in each of the value streams referred to, in terms of where resources should be prioritised and focused.
