Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 January 2011
301 Deputy Jimmy Deenihan asked the Minister for Justice and Law Reform the amount of the money obtained by the Criminal Assets Bureau that has been put into drug rehabilitation nationally and in Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3605/11]
View answerRevenue which has been accumulated by the Criminal Assets Bureau is not earmarked for a specific expenditure programme. Such revenue is paid into the Government's Central Fund. This fund, except where provided otherwise by law, is the destination of all State revenues and the source of all Government spending. It is the Central Fund from which the Government draws for expenditure on all necessary public services and investment including the provision of drug rehabilitation services.
