I should mention Garda accountability, particularly in light of last night's protest outside the Dáil. I am not making any judgment and I realise the dilemma in which the gardaí and the protesters found themselves, but it is important that Garda reforms are implemented. The Minister should implement the Labour Party proposal for a Garda ombudsman because that would be good for the Garda and for community confidence in the its work. There is a great deal of good work done by the Garda but, without independent scrutiny, much of it is undermined.
