Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Policing Authority (21 Mar 2018)

Clare Daly: Lois West told us that on 1 August 2017 she was told by a senior member of management at a management meeting that they had been telephoned by a member of the Policing Authority, stating that she had approached the authority. Does Ms Feehily know who made that telephone call to management? She might remember that Ms West said that in the environment they were in, it felt like somebody...

Clare Daly: Was that telephone call specifically to do with the fact that the women had been in touch and flagging that to management or is Ms Feehily saying it would have been part of a broader conversation or that she does not fully know the answer?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Policing Authority (21 Mar 2018)

Clare Daly: I am conscious that one of the key reasons for the establishment of the authority was due to the culture in place in the Garda and the difficulties with regard to speaking out. In that context, and realising that the testimony given by the two analysts here spoke very much to that culture and the difficulty of speaking out in An Garda Síochána, is Ms Feehily sticking to the line...

Clare Daly: That is not really the point. The idea being put forward is that Ms West contacted the authority and said "Listen, I'm in awful trouble with the job here. I want to go to a meeting with the authority and the lads won't let me. Any chance you could put in a good word for me to go? Clearly, nobody rang and asked that she be allowed to go the meeting. I presume she asked to attend the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Policing Authority (21 Mar 2018)

Clare Daly: I do not see this as an employment matter or a professional conflict. I see it as the authority denying itself access to information that would have assisted it in fulfilling its statutory role, which is to oversee the performance of An Garda Síochána in its functions, because that was the nature of the information that was brought to it, and the analysts were the only people who...
