Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 February 2006
573 Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the number of incidents of illegal drugs being smuggled to a prisoner inside children’s clothing or diapers which have been identified annually from 2000 to 2005; and the prisons in which such activities have been detected. [6969/06]
View answerThe information requested by the Deputy is not readily retrievable and the allocation of time and resources away from essential duties for this purpose cannot be justified. However, I am advised that incidents such as that outlined by the Deputy have been reported in Mountjoy Prison, Limerick Prison and Wheatfield Prison in the time period specified.
