A request was made by my Department on 12 February for an update on the investigation. The chair responded to advise that as matters referred to a protected disclosure under the Act, no information could be provided at that time. I want to remind the House yet again that I am awaiting the outcome of any investigation which An Garda Síochána or GSOC is engaged in. I want to remind Deputy Clare Daly that term of reference [p] of the disclosures tribunal covers complaints by members of the Garda who made protected disclosures prior to 16 February 2016 or who were, as a result, in any way discredited or targeted with the knowledge or acquiescence of senior members of An Garda Síochána. That may well be a channel through which the Deputy may wish to pursue this matter.
