Written answers

I propose to take Questions Nos. 166 to 168, inclusive, together.

Information in relation to the quantity and value of drugs seized by An Garda Síochána is set out in their Annual Reports. The Annual Reports for the years 2007 to 2017 are available on the Garda website (www.garda.ie). The information in the Reports is prepared on the basis of records maintained by Forensic Science Ireland in relation to the quantity of drugs analysed annually at its laboratory. I have requested a report from the Garda authorities in relation to specific information sought and I will revert to the Deputy when the information is to hand.
