Mr. John O'Driscoll:

I do not have the precise date but 30 June is the date that the then Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality wrote to the Commissioner. It would have been some time shortly after that I would have been given the task. I know that in September I wrote to all the regional assistant commissioners requesting that they approach it in a particular manner and that they submit recommendations in terms of stations from their respective regions. It was, therefore, some date in between.
