Ms Nóirín O'Sullivan:

In July 2015, when I became aware of it, the chief administrative officer, the two deputy commissioners and myself discussed the matter and we decided the best course of action was to compile all of the information. The first thing I did was I reviewed files available in my office which quite clearly identified to me that in the period of 2008 there was a lot of interaction in response to what has now been termed as the McGee report.
