Mr. Niall Cody:

The national operation plan is lower. It implements the strategy and we are looking at how we deploy our resources, including dog teams and our scanner. We will get a new scanner this year. It is a not a big mobile scanner rather a backscatter van. We will be supported by the European Anti-Fraud Office, OLAF, as it costs approximately €750,000, and it will increase our scanning capability in the ports.
