I hear what the Commissioner is saying. Perhaps the way to proceed, because I am about the work to be done to improve something, and the key for John Costello's group, is that senior decision-makers are committed to the process of implementation on the ground. This would involve the HSE, Tusla and other State agencies that often leave gardaí on the front line on their own without the support they should be getting. Perhaps I could ask the Commissioner for a commitment that engagement at a senior level will take place with John Costello's implementation group.
