Officials of my Department were first in contact with the Garda Commissioner in July 2011 about the sourcing of records and information from serving and retired members of the Garda Síochána relevant to the work of the Committee chaired by Senator McAleese charged with establishing the facts of the State's involvement with the Magdalen laundries. The Garda Síochána are cooperating fully with the work of the Committee.
