asked the Minister for Justice if it is the intention of the Government to offer an extension of time as Commissioner of the Garda to the present incumbent; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

36.
Any question of granting an extension of service to the Commissioner beyond the compulsory retiring age would be a matter for consideration by the Government in due course. I do not propose to make any further comment on the matter at this stage.
