I am advised by Revenue that details of Customs inspections at the various aerodrome locations, the value of cash and items seized and items returned on appeal and the amount of excise and duty collected, is provided in the table below for the years in question. The value of contraband includes all types of seizures from excisable products, weapons, controlled drugs, meats, etc. The value detailed is the value of the products excluding duties.
I am assured by Revenue that activity levels at all these locations is evaluated and monitored on an ongoing basis and a risk-based determination as to whether a physical presence is required at these locations from time to time is undertaken by Revenue. Attendance at these locations by Revenue’s Customs staff is normally unannounced, but circumstances may require that arrangements are made to ensure personnel and records are available.
