I can inform the Deputy that following a report received from a journalist that some documents, which appeared to originate in my Department, were allegedly found in an illegal dump site in County Tyrone, my Department reported the matter to the Garda Síochána. I have been informed by the Garda Síochána that, following investigation, there was insufficient evidence of a criminal offence to warrant a prosecution in this case.
