Mary Harney (Dublin Mid West, Progressive Democrats)

Obviously there will be a decision in the Supreme Court but I do not know when. The case will be fought in the Supreme Court tomorrow in respect of Mr. A and much will depend on the outcome. I said yesterday it was open to the Director of Public Prosecutions, the independent officer, who I am confident has a legal strategy, to rearrest and recharge those individuals but that is solely a matter for him. We need to be careful before we anticipate some of these issues. There is a Garda vetting unit in respect of those who work with children.
