Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Garda Oversight and Accountability: Discussion

9:00 am

Mr. Joseph Nugent:

If by "system" the Deputy means technology, I am not sure that is the case. If she means the process by which we identified it, I would accept that criticism. We have to do better in that regard. There is a chief medical officer in place in the past six to nine months and he is very aware of the issues associated with injury on duty and illness and it is a matter to which he is giving consideration.
