As the Deputy will be aware, allegations regarding an undercover police officer in this jurisdiction were first made public in 2011.

A report was sought from the Garda Commissioner on the matter at that time and that report was provided to the then Minister for Justice and Equality, in March 2011.

The report in question was subsequently released in March 2017  consistent with the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act 2014 and the decision of the Information Commissioner, and is now available on the Department’s website.
