Chapter 9: Development of Prison Accommodation in Dublin (5 Nov 2015) John Deasy: My sense is that if that policy changed, the public would have absolutely no problem spending the money.

When I heard that, I wondered where this money will go. Will it be allocated for...

Chapter 9: Development of Prison Accommodation in Dublin (5 Nov 2015) John Deasy: I wish to make a small statistical observation. In any given month in Dublin, the overtime bill for An Garda Síochána could be about €2 million. A sum of €5 million will not solve anything when it comes to overtime.

Chapter 9: Development of Prison Accommodation in Dublin (5 Nov 2015) John Deasy: I have all heard all that before, and that is fine. I understand the constraints, where the budgets have gone, by how much they have dipped and so on. Mr. Waters has answered the questions.

Chapter 9: Development of Prison Accommodation in Dublin (5 Nov 2015) John Deasy: Mr. Waters might let me finish this questioning. Is there any timeframe in which the €5 million must be spent, or is it just given €5 million?

Chapter 9: Development of Prison Accommodation in Dublin (5 Nov 2015) John Deasy: Fair enough. When Operation Thor was announced, some open questions arose in terms of the detail. Mr. Waters said where the money would go but he said also that efforts were going to be made to disrupt the stolen goods scene. Can Mr. Waters explain what that means?

Can Mr. O'Sullivan explain what that pertains?
