An Garda Síochána
Dail Éireann — 2023-02-16
============================================================

Paul Murphy (PBP), Dublin South-West

It is now over two years since George Nkencho, a young man, was shot dead by gardaí in Blanchardstown. That the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission report has still not been published two years later is incredible. The family has been driven into a situation of having to take civil action. The inquest has not been able to conclude as a result of the GSOC report not being published. I know the Minister will say it is a GSOC matter and not one for him. That is true, but there is a problem here if we cannot get a GSOC report about such an important matter within two years.
