Garda Síochána (Police Co-Operation) Bill 2003: Second Stage.
Like Senator Terry, my attention was drawn to subsection (9). "Advice", by the way, is a wagging of the finger. It is the lowest form of caution, it is like saying, "Don't do it again." These are all terms of art in disciplinary manuals. It seems that a caution and advice could be given informally without having to go through this whole rigmarole.
