I thank Dr. Singh. My next question concerns the review. I do not refer to the independent peer review that has been announced, but the review of the initial group of cases. My understanding is that the Garda data analysts checked how deaths were classified in the crime records but did not have sight of the full case files. It was therefore not possible to check if homicide investigations were conducted in all cases that warranted a homicide investigation. Further, it is my understanding that where analysts found problems with the classification of some homicides, the people who were contacted to clarify any queries were the superintendents in charge of the initial investigation. Is that an accurate reflection of that review and the way it was conducted?
