Mr. Michael Gilligan:
My understanding is that on the customs and tax side, these are Revenue officials working using all the Revenue powers under the coat of the Criminal Assets Bureau along with officers of the bureau. When they raise the assessments, they also undertake all the collection. It initially goes into a Criminal Assets Bureau account and then moves into a Revenue account.
