Vol. 245 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Drug Smuggling Allegation.

22.

asked the Minister for Justice if his attention has been drawn to a statement by a Dublin doctor that Irish fishermen were engaged in smuggling drugs into the country; and if in view of the seriousness of this allegation he will have the matter investigated with a view to clearing the good name of Irish fishermen.

This is not a matter for me to decide. It is a matter for the Revenue Commissioners, who are responsible for the prevention of smuggling, or, perhaps, for the Minister for Health who is the Minister primarily concerned with problems of drug abuse.
