That is why three years ago we set up the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, to handle all prosecutions like this.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610987\" data-originallang=\"en\">I appreciate that, since the Bloc members' interest in justice issues is only about three days old, they would not be aware that that has been in place, but if they have any evidence, they can direct it toward the appropriate individual.</p>",
