155.

The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions is a statutorily independent body operating under the aegis of the Department of the Taoiseach. The Deputy will appreciate that as I have no Ministerial responsibility in relation to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions it is not possible for me to provide the information sought.
