I understand that the Garda Commissioner has referred these allegations to the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission, which is the statutory independent body established under the Garda Síochána Act 2005 to investigate the conduct of members of the Garda Síochána. The Deputy will appreciate that it would therefore be inappropriate for me to comment further on the matter at the present time.
