Mr. Liam Kidd:

We have a process with which I am not familiar because it is done by our crime and security branch. However, we send the details of any personnel coming to work in An Garda Síochána to our crime and security branch. It will tell us if they can or cannot. There have been instances - I do not want to give examples - where people have not been security cleared. It has been unfortunate for the individuals for whatever reason.
