We will ask for this information.

No. 1135 B from Ms Oonagh McPhillips, Secretary General of Department of Justice, dated 15 March 2022. It provides information requested by the committee regarding the workload of the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission, GSOC, complaints referred by it to An Garda Síochána and vice versa, and an update regarding the meeting with regard to senior members of the Garda facilitated by the Workplace Relations Commission that was scheduled for 26 January. It appears a mechanism has been found to address the industrial relations dispute which will see An Garda Síochána carrying out relevant GSOC investigations once again.

It is proposed to note and publish this item. Is that agreed? Agreed. It was flagged for discussion by Deputy Catherine Murphy.
