Written answers

I am advised by Revenue that the total number of dog units in operation in Revenue is currently 17. The dogs are trained to locate a variety of contraband including narcotics, tobacco and cash.  The total number of dog units is sufficient for current day-to-day operations but is kept under constant review.
