Vol. 526 No. 1

Written Answers. - Garda Investigations.

Pat Rabbitte

Ceist:

126 Mr. Rabbitte asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the investigation which has been held into the circumstances in which a person (details supplied) who has since died, confessed to the murder of two women, which it was subsequently established he did not commit and in respect of which charges were later withdrawn; the reason this person's statement was not audio or video-taped despite the availability within the garda station of such a facility; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25774/00]

I refer the Deputy to my detailed answer to Question No. 66 of 5 October 2000 on this matter. I have nothing further to add to the reply given on that occasion.
