Ireland: Slow Pace

From an ABC News report:
Police said they were preparing a book of evidence for state prosecutors to consider against Cunningham, a common practice in Ireland, where authorities often take weeks to mull over information before making a decision.

This reminds me of the old joke, where someone asked if there was an Irish equivalent for the Spanish term 'Mañana'. "Nothing that conveys the same sense of urgency."
