Ceist:87 Dr. Moffatt asked the Minister for Justice whether she will propose a Supplementary Estimate for her Department with a view to tackling the crime epidemic. [7041/96]
Written Answers. - Crime Supplementary Estimate.
I have responsibility for a number of Votes which have relevance to the Criminal Justice System, including the fight against crime. The proposed expenditure of my Department approved by the Government for this year takes full account of my Department's requirements and, in particular, the needs of the Garda Síochána who have the lead role in the fight against crime. I have no proposals at this stage to bring forward a Supplementary Estimate for any of the Votes for which I have responsibility.
