I direct this question to the Comptroller and Auditor General. When the then Comptroller and Auditor General would have carried out the examination in terms of the position, as distinct from the person, I have no doubt this particular issue would have come in within the normal audit in terms of An Garda Síochána in 2007. The Comptroller and Auditor General might give us a comment on the issue and examine what was carried out in that particular year and report back to the committee. The Comptroller and Auditor General's office audits An Garda Síochána on an annual basis. The Comptroller and Auditor General might give us a general overview on that.
