Mick Wallace: Publish Garda whistleblower report

The Government will “make a mockery” of Garda whistleblowers if it allows Nóirín O’Sullivan to remain in power while a commission of investigation into claims senior management attempted to discredit them takes place.

Independents4Change TD Mick Wallace made the claim during a heated Dáil debate in which he called for Taoiseach Enda Kenny to publish a detailed report into the controversy, which has dogged Government since early December.

Last October, retired High Court judge Iarfhlaith O’Neill was asked to investigate claims from Supt David Taylor that he and others had been told by Garda Commissioner Nóirín O’Sullivan and senior managers to discredit Garda whistleblower Maurice McCabe.
