"Affirming Judge Gibbons’ decision, Mr Justice Noonan said there was no ambiguity in the Act that when performing the Evidenzer test, the garda must supply statements in Irish and in English."
Nothing to do with Justice or otherwise really - the Guards simply messed up. Not much point in having a law if the people who are required to enforce it are incapable of doing so. Defendant was entitled to the statements in both Irish and English and whether we like it or not he was denied his rights under the law. We can't apply laws that are designed to apply to all simply to suit the circumstances of each individual case. It was, in my view, absolutely correct to point out the anomaly.
