Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

I do not know whether the information the committee received is very similar to or the same as the information we received. When we got our information, we looked to identify the systemic control issues of relevance to our responsibilities, which are to investigate and report on the proper collection of revenues due to the State. We have reported on it. We have completed that process, unless some other aspect of the examination is thrown up by the information the committee has received. We cannot know until we have looked at it. The committee would need to be sure it has the power within the data protection legislation to hand that information to anybody other than to the Garda Commissioner.
