An Garda Siochana say they are investigating reports that a member of the force texted sensitive information to a paramilitary in Northern Ireland.

A spokesperson for the Gardai says a full report on the matter will be provided to the Minister for Justice and as the investigation is ongoing, it wouldn't be appropriate to comment further at this stage.

The Herald Newspaper reports that the communication contained details about two dissident suspects who were questioned at a Garda station in Leinster, where the member of staff is believed to have worked.

Minister Frances Fitzgerald says she is disturbed by the reports and wants the facts to be established as a matter of urgency.
