204. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality if his attention has been drawn to the fact that for a second time the Garda vetting unit has sent incorrect information on a person (details supplied) in County Tipperary to a potential employer; if he will investigate how this has occurred again; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Garda Vetting disclosures are made to registered organisations following the signed authorisation of a vetting subject permitting the Garda Central Vetting Unit (GCVU) to disclose to the registered organisation "details of all prosecutions, successful or not, pending or completed, and/or convictions which may be recorded in respect of them in the State or elsewhere"; or alternatively that there are "no prosecutions or convictions recorded in respect of them".
An Garda Síochána are not aware of any basis for the assertion contained in the Deputy's question.
