Have there been any discussions between the Department and An Garda Síochána on this issue? An Garda Síochána obviously has concerns about it. The last thing we need, in situations where An Garda Síochána feels there has been a clear breach of the regulations, is a long drawn out process to determine whether that is the case. Then we are in the whole area of judicial review etc. Is it not better that we get all of the boxes ticked as regards what the demarcation line is?
