Clare Daly: Did I mishear that? Did Mr. Finn say the people he had asked to conduct the comprehensive review told the Garda in November that they could only do so much without access to the full case files. Did I mishear that?

Clare Daly: Does Dr. Singh think that was the response to his request, that his team could only do so much? I understand Dr. Singh did not specifically ask for the full case files, and that what actually happened was that it was decided to set up a joint body where the two sides, the analysts and gardaí, would look at all the files and examine them.

Clare Daly: Did Dr. Singh and his team get access to all the files as part of that?

Clare Daly: How would that be considered a joint team? I would not call that a joint team.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Homicide Statistics: Discussion (14 Feb 2018)
Clare Daly: I would dispute that what Mr. Finn has described is a joint team. Mr. Finn told us that the analysts were asked to conduct a comprehensive analysis, so they started to do that and in November 2016 they said they could not take this any further without the case files. As Mr. Finn said, they set up a joint committee to look at the full files but it is not a joint committee; it is the Garda...

Clare Daly: Will Mr. Finn tell me about the group then?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Homicide Statistics: Discussion (14 Feb 2018)
Clare Daly: In essence, what they were highlighting was the purpose of the project and that the reassurance the victims of crime needed was not just the classification but that the homicide had been investigated to the standards of which a homicide should be investigated. There was no way for them to validate that unless the full case files were examined. How many people were on the review group, or...

Clare Daly: I am trying to get my head around something. When the analysts flagged their concerns and the review group, team or whatever it was was set up in January 2017, who was on that? Both of the witnesses have said that it was a joint team.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Homicide Statistics: Discussion (14 Feb 2018)
Clare Daly: A chief superintendent, a sergeant, a garda and two analysts.

Clare Daly: They did not all sit down and review the files. Only the Garda end examined the files.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Homicide Statistics: Discussion (14 Feb 2018)
Clare Daly: No. I am trying to get my head around something. When the report went to the Policing Authority, it did not come from the joint group that was convened. It only came from the Garda element of that group.

Clare Daly: Can Mr. Finn give us an assurance that all the homicides were appropriately investigated to article 2 compliance levels and that all the files were examined fully as opposed to the officers who conducted the original investigations simply being inquired with? Has it involved more than that?

Clare Daly: That is ongoing.

Clare Daly: The Garda has not done that yet, so.

Clare Daly: It was not done in the earlier phase, but it is being done now.

Clare Daly: The Policing Authority released a statement this month expressing its frustration with the length of time taken to deal with the issue of homicide statistics. Regarding classifications, it also asked the Garda to provide an explanation as to why there were discrepancies between some of the material received by the authority on 26 April and the report on 21 September. Has the Garda given the...
