Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (8 May 2019)

Clare Daly: I thank the witnesses for being here today. It is great that we are discussing this subject again but I get a sense of déjà vu. These issues have been talked about more since the commission last appeared before the committee but in terms of structural changes, particularly legislatively, we are no further along the road. That is my view. My first batch of questions relate to the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (8 May 2019)

Clare Daly: This is incredibly illuminating. I do not want to put the witnesses in the difficult position of having to comment on what the Department is doing but this is a forum to put on the public record some of the issues or to tease out what is going on behind the scenes. Hand on heart and on the basis of what has been said and the information provided, I am very worried about where this is going....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (8 May 2019)

I believe it is linked to Ms Justice Ring's statement that it was troubling that An Garda Síochána continued to conduct criminal investigations into its members without the knowledge or involvement of GSOC. Either the Garda does not know it is supposed to do that or it is something more sinister. This is very troubling. Ms...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (8 May 2019)

Clare Daly: This is all piecing together to form a very troubling picture. It is even more troubling given that we were discussing the same matters three years ago. At that time, we were a little more upbeat because GSOC had gone to the trouble of detailing the legislative provision that would have sorted out this matter. Now we see not only the lack of change in that respect and its impact on the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (8 May 2019)

Clare Daly: Ms Justice Ring paints an incredibly depressing picture, but for all of that I do not blame the witness. I believe the situation we are in is disgraceful, years on from when many of these issues were flagged. In fairness, Ms Justice Ring has not been shy in spelling out the damage that has been done to some members of An Garda Síochána who made these disclosures, and to some of...
