I can confirm to the Deputy that the person to whom he refers has recently been included amongst those whose complaints are under consideration by the panel of counsel appointed to operate the Independent Review Mechanism set up to consider allegations of Garda misconduct and inadequacy in the investigation of such allegations.
Following the review of her complaint by counsel a recommendation will be made as to whether any further action is desirable and could practicably be taken. The Deputy will appreciate that it would not be appropriate for me to comment further at this stage.
