An Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission Annual Report 2021: Discussion
Mr. Hugh Hume:
As Mr. Justice Rory MacCabe mentioned in his coverage, people come and leave. They acquire skills in GSOC that are invaluable to organisations and they move on. That turnover of staff, particularly on the investigation side but also in the wider Civil Service, is a constant drain for us. Ms Woods might talk to this. Thankfully, we have recently secured sanction for a training course that will allow us to provide external training to members who maybe do not always have that investigative experience to bring them up to standard. Does Ms Woods want to say something about that?
