View answerThe Deputy will appreciate that I have no functions in relation to the conduct of criminal investigations. A person who is affected by a decision of the kind referred to by the Deputy could seek to discuss the matter with the Garda authorities. More generally, a person who alleges misconduct by a member of the Garda Síochána may make a complaint to the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission.
