Written Answers. - Drug Trafficking.

Seamus Brennan

Question:

33 Mr. S. Brennan asked the Minister for Justice, in view of the fact that drug finds off our coasts and at points of entry are only the tip of the iceberg, the measures if any, she will take in relation to the joint task force of Garda, Navy, Customs and the Revenue Commissioners. [8416/95]

Minister for Justice (Mrs. Owen)

I will be bringing certain proposals related to inter-agency co-operation in the fight against drug trafficking to Government in the near future. While I cannot comment on those proposals in any detail at this stage, I can say that they will address the issue of joint action raised in the question put down by the Deputy.
