Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Weighing of Fisheries Products: Discussion
Mr. Miche?l O'Mahony:
We conduct joint operations with the Garda. They involve us standing on the side of a road stopping trucks with gardaí. Representatives of the Revenue Commissioners may be present but it is more likely to involve people from the Department of Social Protection if the truck has people who may be at risk of conducting revenue fraud. If there is a truck full of fish, we look at the fish. That is an example of a joint operation between the Gardaí and other Departments.
