Reasons for refusing applicants examination entry

Summary

Wilson asked whether applicants refused entry to the Garda recruitment examination could learn why, and whether withholding reasons was fair. The Minister said suitability was for the Garda Commissioner to determine; the Ceann Comhairle noted the question was not strictly related to the listed questions.

Could the Minister state if an applicant who has been refused entrance to the examination has any way of finding out why he has been refused?

Comment on this

It is a matter for the Commissioner to determine the suitability of any applicant for admission to the Garda.

Comment on this

Is the Minister satisfied that it is in accordance with strict justice that a person is refused entrance to the examination, not entrance to the Garda, and does not know why he is refused?
