The Minister might deal with the concern about the conditionality explicit in the legislation, step by step, where somebody comes forward. What will happen?

The point I want to raise is related but slightly different. The Minister has said one of the changes he made, in addition to removing the good faith notion, was related to the public interest notion. I notice that is not the case in respect of An Garda Síochána. Not alone may the investigation be made, the provision also provides for it to happen if it appears to it to be desirable in the public interest.
