The Deputy will appreciate that, as Minister for Justice and Equality, I have no direct role in the investigation of criminal offences or the bringing of charges. I can, however, assure the Deputy that An Garda Síochána devotes all necessary resources to the investigation of serious offences of this nature with a view to the detection of offenders and bringing of prosecutions wherever possible. I have asked the Garda authorities for whatever information may be readily available in relation to the matter referred to by the Deputy and will communicate further with him.
