We move on then and the next public meeting the authority had with the Garda Síochána was on 29 June 2017. At that stage, the authority knew an awful lot, in terms of the information it got from a variety of sources, including the five page letter of 11 May and the concerns expressed in the phone calls. At that meeting, it was presented to the witness, again by the representatives of An Garda Síochána, that the issues in respect of the database had been rectified. Looking back on what she was told at the meeting of 29 June 2017, does Ms Feehily think she was given an accurate account of the status of the homicide review at that stage?
