Catherine Murphy (SD), Kildare North

Has the Minister been in contact with GSOC since that article was written at the weekend? Has she satisfied herself that this is, as she has put on the record of this House, very limited? Is she absolutely satisfied that is the case? If so, on what basis is she satisfied it is the case? Is she aware that a legal case is likely to flow from this? It was reported in one of the newspapers yesterday that this is likely to happen. The NUJ has come out on this as well. I am very surprised. Has the Minister been in contact with GSOC this week following publication of that article? If so, what was the result of that dialogue?
