Public Accounts Committee

2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission

9:30 am

Mr. Hugh Hume:

The discipline process is a very challenging one to work through. Seeking the documents and getting all the information can take time. It is not best suited in terms of our having the Garda investigate in respect of the needs of the victim, the complainant in this case. We would certainly seek a far more timely and effective way of dealing with these complaints.
