Liam Fitzgerald
Question:76 Mr. L. Fitzgerald asked the Minister for Finance the plans, if any, he has to give additional powers to the Revenue Commissioners to assist their role as part of a joint operation with the Garda Síochána to tackle the drugs problems; whether he has studied the major role played by the revenue authorities in New York in flushing out the drug dealers by seizing funds and in turn ploughing those funds back into providing additional resources for the war against drugs; the similar measures, if any, that are planned in Ireland; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
