I will finish up by saying that the Minister had described the new proposals as the most wide-ranging and coherent reform of policing in a generation. I was surprised that the Garda Commissioner had said that that the gardaí do not seem to be in favour of the new reforms and I believe "draconian" was the word he used. What is the commission’s feeling on that?
