PQ 243

253 Deputy John McGuinness asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will explain to Dáil Éireann the reason the wording of chapter 39 of the Garda code, which sets out the extent of the information to be provided to a firearms licence applicant concerning the reasons for refusal of a firearms certificate, was removed from an earlier draft of the Garda Commissioner’s guidelines which were agreed by him; if he will agree that the absence of this Garda code wording has in effect given rise to all of the firearms judicial review cases currently before the High Court; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
