Mr. Cathal Ryan:

It depends on what is in play. If State security was the argument being made, it would probably fall under old legislation, namely, the 1998 Act. Typical Garda operations fall under the law enforcement directive. We have powers to carry out investigations and inquiries. If an individual feels he or she is not getting access to data for whatever reason, such a person can make a complaint and we will then have to handle it.
