Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 3 December 2013
290. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Justice and Equality further to Parliamentary Question No. 388 of 10 July 2012, if any developments, legislative or otherwise, have been made regarding the cash for gold business following consideration of the report published in summer 2012. [51549/13]
View answerI published a report in June, 2012 on the criminal justice aspects of the cash for gold trade. The Report prepared by my Department is available on www.justice.ie. I requested the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Equality and Defence to consider the content of the report, to ensure that it obtains the views of all relevant interested parties and that it makes such report and recommendations to the Houses of the Oireachtas and to Government as it deems proportionate and appropriate in the public interest. I received the Committee's response on 30th May, 2013 and it is currently under consideration.
