One of the intentions of the Bill is to strengthen the independence of GSOC and that is being strongly opposed by An Garda Síochána. The day the Commissioner was before the committee, he seemed to indicate that the Garda is not happy with that. Does Ms McPhillips have any comment in that regard? Is that the situation at the moment? Is there a big pushback against the legislation?
