Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform (Deputy Dermot Ahern)

I have been informed by the Garda Síochána that a superintendent has been appointed to inquire into the issues raised by the person concerned. However, it is understood that the person has indicated that he does not wish to meet the superintendent at this time. Civil proceedings are also before the courts. In the circumstances, I am unable to comment further.
