Labhrás Ó Murchú (Fianna Fail)

It behoves us all, as public representatives, to appreciate that we have a pretty privileged role to play. We must be able to respond to what we hear from our constituents. In this case, the manner in which the information was presented is separate from the more important issue of the essence of what was presented. I do not mean to detract in any way from the excellent report which has been made available to us. It will become a reference document for many years to come. We will rely on it when we are trying to ensure we can be guided at all times by the trust and confidence we have in the Garda, or any other arm of the State. Mr. Justice Morris has served the State by dealing with this issue, which has been the subject of significant public interest, for over five years. Throughout that period, he has done a job we can be particularly pleased with and proud of.
