Katherine Zappone (Dublin South West, Independent) | Oireachtas source

I support what the Tánaiste says. I can understand why the Deputy is asking the question. He may have a suggestion in terms of other ways to get at that more quickly than what we are identifying here. The tribunal of inquiry may be appropriately placed or the investigation I have ordered. In light of the questions he raised and an earlier question from Deputy Catherine Martin on Tusla and An Garda Síochána, I indicated that I understood that this was an isolated case. I took Deputy Catherine Martin to be asking the question in terms of sexual abuse. If she was asking if it is wider than that, I can confirm that on Friday I received correspondence from a Garda whistleblower in another part of the country in relation to gardaí and Tusla.
