Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 March 2026
379. Deputy Ken O'Flynn asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration the specific actions that were taken to implement the recommendations arising from an investigation (details supplied) into protected disclosures concerning dysfunctional reporting systems; and the audit or verification that has been carried out to confirm their effectiveness in practice. [23472/26]
View answerMy Department is generally not made aware of protected disclosures investigations in its aegis bodies that operate their own protected disclosures policies, i.e. An Garda Síochána, Irish Prison Service, Legal Aid Board, Courts Service, and Fiosrú. While my Department was informed of recommendations in a report relating to the Irish Prison Service in 2022, any recommendations are followed up within the organisation to which they refer.
