Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 December 2005
369 Mr. Costello asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the number of investigations into the death of Richie Barron; the cost to the taxpayer of each investigation; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37637/05]
Amharc ar fhreagraThere have been three Garda investigations into the death of the person concerned. Such investigations are undertaken as part of normal duties and, therefore, the costs incurred in each investigation were accounted for in the normal manner under the relevant subheads of the Votes concerned. It would not be possible to retrospectively extract the cost of each investigation without the reallocation of resources on a scale that would be impractical.
