As the Deputy will be aware, the management of the PULSE system is an operational matter which is undertaken by the Garda Commissioner.

In that context I have been informed by the Garda authorities that when a person wishes to query the accuracy of a PULSE record the procedure is that the individual submits the relevant details in writing to the Garda Criminal Records Office. In such instances, if it is established that the record is correct then the person is so advised. However, if it is established that the record is either partially or fully incorrect the Garda Criminal Records Office ensures that any necessary amendments are made to PULSE and the person is advised accordingly.
