This is an inter-agency issue between the chief bureau officer and Garda Commissioner. Is there an obligation on the Commissioner to report to the Minister? Will the relevant information be placed in the public domain? It is all very well to produce an internal report but what if people are screaming at the gates and the Minister and members of the public have not been made aware of an issue? Is the Minister satisfied that the amendment addresses the public dimension of communicating information?
