Is the Minister concerned about allegations made by a number of media outlets, including The Guardian, which is one of the most respected international media outlets, that senior journalists who worked directly with gardaí had penalty points terminated? Is he concerned about media reports that at least two judges allegedly had penalty points terminated? There was also a report about a State solicitor. No person in the State could accept it if what has been alleged actually happened, particularly as these people are supposed to hold justice and democracy to account. How does the Minister feel about those allegations?
