In my remaining time, I will move on to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform spending review and the key performance indicators, KPIs, in policing. It is something that might not be especially exciting to talk about but it is incredibly influential in both decision-making and policy-making. It would be helpful for the authority to set out what it considers when it sets annual policing priorities and performance targets for An Garda Síochána. We will also bring data collection into that discussion. Looking at the information before us, there has already been consideration of quantitative reviews or KPIs that are more about activity than outcomes.
