I am informed by the Garda authorities that, on completion of the investigation by an assistant commissioner into allegations of corruption and malpractice involving members of the Garda in County Donegal, a file in the matter was forwarded to the Director of Public Prosecutions.
In addition to the investigation carried out by the assistant commissioner, two other investigations relating to Donegal were initiated. One, conducted by another assistant commissioner, relates to matters raised by the then Opposition spokespersons on justice and the other investigation, conducted by a chief superintendent, relates to a matter raised by a member of the Garda Síochána in Donegal concerning the original investigation. The results of these investigations are still awaited.
