Denis Naughten
Question:164 Deputy Denis Naughten asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he will agree that the deterioration of the economy has led to an upsurge in criminal activity, particularly in counterfeit DVDs, clothes and cigarettes, all of which are aiding and abetting a thriving black market economy while damaging legitimate retailers nationwide; the steps he and the Garda will take to counteract this illegal activity, the proceeds of which end up in the hands of criminal gangs and dissident terrorist groups; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
