I had an issue with a person who had dementia and was living on his own. More than €100,000 was taken from his bank accounts over the course of 12 months. When I filed a full complaint with An Garda Síochána, no action could be taken because the man would not be able to give evidence. How do we deal with cases like this? It is a challenge in the sense that there is clear evidence that money was taken out of the man's accounts over a 12-month period. It was also clear that the man did not withdraw the money, but An Garda Síochána would not take any action. How does Safeguarding Ireland deal with such an issue?
