In June 2008, I asked the Garda Inspectorate to undertake an assessment of the need to establish a dedicated Missing Persons Unit, including a response network similar to 'Amber Alert' in the USA. This was in accordance with the commitment made in the Programme for Government.
I understand that the Inspectorate is currently making progress on its assessment and I look forward to examining its report in due course.
