Question 379: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he has received representations by or on behalf of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 24 in relation to the killing of a person four years ago as a result of an arson attack; if he will have the investigation reviewed by a person from outside that Garda division; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

First, I once again express my sympathy to the family on their tragic loss. As the Deputy is no doubt aware, I have received representations regarding this matter and I have corresponded directly with the family. The situation remains that this Garda investigation is ongoing and that the Garda authorities have been in regular contact with the family. The issue of requesting a person from outside the Garda Division to review the investigation is a matter for the Garda Commissioner.
