Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 29 November 2017
273. Deputy Mick Barry asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will direct the Chief State Solicitor's Office to make an appropriate payment in view of the conclusion of a High Court case (details supplied). [51114/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am aware of the case to which the Deputy refers.
I note that no actual award was made by the Supreme Court in the case. There was a suggestion that the State make an ex-gratia payment. No final decision has been made on how the matter will be resolved and I am informed that the Garda Síochána and the Chief State Solicitor's Office are still considering how to advance the issues.
