It is not the normal practice to comment on the progress in individual Garda investigations and I do not propose to depart from that practice in this instance. I understand, however, that this investigation is at an advanced stage.

Question:141 Miss Harney asked the Minister for Justice if she has received the Garda report in relation to a person (details supplied) in Dublin 24; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [10764/95]
I have been informed by the Garda authorities that a report on the investigation of allegations made by the person concerned was forwarded to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions in 1989 and a decision not to institute proceedings was taken.
The Garda authorities have also informed me that following a further investigation in 1994, the file was again forwarded to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions and the decision as regards prosecution was not changed.

Question:142 Miss Harney asked the Minister for Justice the progress, if any, that has been made in relation to the case involving a person (details supplied) in Dublin 22; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [10765/95]
I have been informed by the Garda authorities that their investigation report on allegations made by the person concerned was referred to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions where a decision was taken in 1992 and there should be no prosecution.
I understand, however, that further Garda inquiries are being made in this case and it is expected that, when these have been completed, a file will be resubmitted to the Director of Public Prosecutions in due course.
