Below are (generally anonymised) reports following GSOC investigations.
GSOC has limited resources for redacting and editing what are often very long and technical investigation reports for publication, so we cannot publish as many of our reports as we would like.
We prioritise the publication of reports on investigations undertaken in the public interest (in line with section 102(4) or 102(5) of the Garda Síochána Act 2005).
We also publish reports on investigations following referrals from the Garda Síochána, and sometimes reports on investigations following complaints from individuals, where the Ombudsman Commission deems it to be in the public interest to do so.
