Alan M. Dukes
Ceist:27 Mr. Dukes asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the new regulations being imposed with regard to the storage of firearms by the licensed holders of firearms; the consideration given to the fact that these regulations may make the whereabouts of firearms more readily discoverable by burglars; the authority under which these new arrangements are being introduced; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
