Alan Kelly: I will be quick because I did take up a bit of the Minister's time earlier. On the vetting, I wrote to every Minister and asked where there had been changes in vetting procedures where this new vetting process had been brought in by An Garda Síochána. There is deep concern among the public. It did not operate anywhere else.

Alan Kelly: Yes, I should have been clear. It is the vetting for new recruits. This is done by An Garda Síochána. Has the Minister been made aware of any issues that have arisen as a result of this change in vetting? Are there any cases whereby someone has commenced training and subsequently not come to end of their training because the vetting process decided that they were not suitable?...
