Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Authorised Push Payments Fraud: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Justin Kelly:

Absolutely, there are lots of prosecutions every year. I do not have the figures with me but, for example, in the case of money mules, there are hundreds of prosecutions for money laundering every year. I presume the Deputy is familiar with money mules and how that system works. For us, it is clear those people are committing a money laundering offence, and we have hundreds of prosecutions for those people every year.
