Clarity required on ways in which data recorded in cases where reported images are found to be innocent according to civil rights organisation
Seán Moran: No point in intensifying punishments on referee incidents if you can’t make sanctions stick
“There were various other categories and at the end of the day [and] only 10 percent of the information they got was actually actionable for criminal processing, but that 11 percent, that was innocent 471 cases,” he said. “The difficulty is it would seem from the correspondence we’ve had with An Garda Síochána they retain that information. We’ve got confirmation that all of the referrals go on a database and nothing is removed from the database so far, so it is still retained”.
Mr Herrick said there were “potentially negative consequences” for the people involved. It may also be the case that the Gardaí did not know that they were retaining the information until the issue was flagged by ICCL.
