Paul McAuliffe: Yesterday this Chamber was addressed by the President of a democracy that is under the threat of extinction. His address was attended by far more people than there are in the Chamber now. Deputy Higgins is right that this is a bit of a nerdy issue but it is also the bones and very core of our democracy. I commend the Minister on bringing forward the Bill. The committee found that while...
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (7 Apr 2022) Paul McAuliffe: I have the responsibility of attending two committees at the same time and I always wonder how I am meant to do that. If I missed GSOC's answer, I apologise. I heard that 5% of overall complaints were fully investigated. GSOC might clarify that figure for me.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts

- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (7 Apr 2022) Paul McAuliffe: It is difficult for us to comment on specific cases, particularly ones that are active, and what we like to do is comment on patterns that we see. In general, the delay in GSOC's ability to investigate often has a compounding impact on people who perceive that they are victims. In some cases, it will be proved that they were victims. It is hard to say but sometimes people would say that...

- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (7 Apr 2022) Paul McAuliffe: I accept that. I hear Mr. Hume saying it is not acceptable; we all are saying it is not acceptable. It is the Government's job to try to resolve problems. As a Government Deputy, I am asking how we resolve the problem, how many more staff GSOC needs and what requests it has made to the Department. It is hard to accept the view that it is unacceptable to have these delays without seeing...
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (7 Apr 2022) Paul McAuliffe: I will put it another way because I am anxious to move to a different topic. When the witnesses are before the committee again and if there are similar delays, it will be harder to accept their response if they have not made a clear request to the Minister, the Department and the system. I will leave it at that. I am anxious to talk about children, cases GSOC deals with that involve...
