Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 December 2016
93. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality if she will meet and respond directly to a person (details supplied) regarding a matter; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [38702/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised that the matters referred to have been the subject of a Garda investigation and have also come before the Courts. The Deputy will appreciate that it is not open to me to intervene in relation to particular Garda investigations, and that it would not be appropriate for me to comment in relation to the outcome of court proceedings.
However, to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have made arrangements for the correspondence in question to be brought to the attention of the Garda authorities. I am also advised that Gardaí have made contact with the person in question in relation to his concerns.
