He said the Garda Commissioner had made a serious error of judgment and that he knew, or should have known, about the malpractice. He also goes on to suggest that the Garda Commissioner should stand aside. He also said:

The appropriate thing to do as a result of the shattering of confidence in sections of the Garda Síochána, right up to the level of Garda Commissioner, is not for the Taoiseach to start studying these documents but to immediately set up an independent commission of investigation to find out what happened. The Minister, unfortunately, is in the dock because he did not respond appropriately to these allegations in 2012.
