I can confirm to the Deputy that two applications for compensation under the Garda Síochána (Compensation) Acts, 1941 and 1945, were made by the person concerned. On 3rd October 2008 and 15th November 2012, authorisations were granted to the claimant on both applications. In accordance with the Acts, the applicant's legal representative were notified to proceed to the High Court for compensation in respect of each case. As such, these applications have been dealt with by my Department and I, as Minister, have no further role in the matter.
