Here is the difficulty. Shane was killed in 2011 by someone who should have been in prison. It is now 2022. We had the GSOC inquiry, which took God knows how long, and the Department refused to answer any questions when it was taking place Now we have the scoping inquiry, which has been in train for three years. I assume that if, as directed by the Houses, we are to have a further public inquiry, its deliberations will take some time . What would the Department consider to be an appropriate timeframe for the family and loved ones of Shane O'Farrell to get the truth as to how the set of incidents that led to his death were allowed to happen?
