Ms Aileen Healy:

We got an additional allocation in the 2022 Estimates to allow us to recruit the 22 investigators we reckon we need with our current workload. Given the uncertainties about the Bill and what exactly the powers will be, we do not yet know. In the coming weeks and months, we will undertake this analysis with a view to feeding it into the 2023 Estimates.
