Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 5 December 2013
177. Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the reason the CT68 forms used by An Garda Síochána are not made available to the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission, in the event of a subsequent investigation by GSOC, and the families of persons killed or seriously injured in road traffic collisions. [52282/13]
View answerIt is matter for the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission to determine what information they require in respect of an investigation. I am advised by the Ombudsman Commission that if they deem it necessary to obtain a copy of the CT68 form they can request it from An Garda Síochána and they are satisfied that the form will be provided. I am awaiting clarification from the Garda Commissioner on the question of whether the families of persons killed or seriously injured in road traffic collisions would be provided with a copy of the CT68 form. I will write to the Deputy when I receive that clarification.
