Aodhán Ó Ríordáin: We did have a motion of no confidence in the Garda Commissioner, which I did not think was a good move by the GRA but it happened. We did have a threat of work to rule, effectively, for the month of October, which did not happen but overhung the whole month until it was resolved. The Garda Commissioner has not been invited to the GRA conference and the Minister has already decided not to...

This is what the Garda training steering group is looking at with regard to whether there are other options that we have not been using to increase the overall number.
