Has the GRA commented on any of these cases in the past, unless it was asked? Has it come out and made a comment on them? I think there is an issue. This impacts on public trust. The GRA has rightly been very critical, sometimes with good justification, regarding to the Garda Commissioner in the past yet when a member of An Garda Síochána is involved in criminal activity, the GRA seems to remain quiet. Does Mr. Slevin see the impact that could have on public confidence? Why would the GRA not just come out and make a comment on these? These are cases that have already gone through the courts. There has been a conviction. It is not going to be prejudiced or anything like that. I am asking whether the GRA would have a comment on that after the fact.
