Pre-legislative Scrutiny of the Proceeds of Crime (Amendment) Bill 2024: Discussion

Mr. Justin Kelly:

The only thing I would add is that the work of the Criminal Assets Bureau is just one aspect of the overall approach to organised crime in this country, particularly the transnational organised crime which has been referenced. From our point of view, we support everything that can be done to make Ireland a hostile environment for them to operate. CAB is one aspect of this and these amendments will definitely go towards that.
