I will just ask the question again, to be direct about it. Essentially, if GSOC is undertaking a major investigation into wrongdoing in the Garda, obviously this would entail substantial legal costs. Are these included in the figures provided for the staff costs of the organisation? That is a direct "Yes" or "No" answer.
