I have concerns with the provision. A major aspect of the Bill is to give people the ability to make a complaint about gardaí. These new powers are given to officers in the locations outlined who are not gardaí. If a person feels his or her rights have been infringed by such officers, what should he or she do? The Bill appears to give substantial powers of search and so on to those designated officers under the section. A person might feel he or she has been wrongly suspected, that the provisions of the section have been wrongly applied or that his or her civil rights have been infringed. In what way does the Bill provide for a grievance procedure?
