Mr. Hugh Hume:

Ms Healy is quite right. In our most recent report on protected disclosures, we highlighted that we had sent four disciplinary files in 2021 to the Garda Commissioner. He will consider them and, as Mr. Justice MacCabe stated, it is a matter for the Commissioner to decide whether there has been a breach of disciplinary standards. If he decides that is the case, he will form a panel. It is a matter for the Commissioner to establish that panel and then to review the decision of the panel. We are not involved in rulings regarding discipline findings.
