Thursday 20 March 2014 13.53 Minister for Transport Leo Varadkar has thanked garda whistleblowers Sergeant Maurice McCabe and John Wilson at a road safety conference.
Mr Varadkar said their behaviour is better described as distinguished not disgusting, referring to the previous use of the word by Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan.
The minister said the commissioner should withdraw the remark.
Commissioner Callinan earlier this month said he wanted to clarify his use of the term "disgusting" during his appearance at the Public Accounts Committee last January.
"My use of that term was not in reference to the character of either Sgt McCabe or former Garda Wilson, but the manner in which personal and sensitive data was inappropriately appearing in the public domain without regard to due process and fair procedures," he said.
Asked if there should be an apology to the whistleblowers, Mr Varadkar said it should only come if it was heartfelt as there is no point in making an insincere apology.
Mr Wilson said he was "very pleased with the remarks" and he "greatly respects Minister Leo Varadkar".
