One of the points Mr. Kelly raised earlier concerned the effect of the drip-feed of reports being published over the next number of months on morale within the Garda and on the public perception of the work it carries out.

Clearly, those processes are in train. How would the ICCL propose to best handle that in terms of what we can expect over the next number of months in tandem with the review of the current legislation, the establishment of an independent policing board within the next six or seven months as has been proposed and any other alterations to the current suite of legislation within justice?
