Crime Prevention.
3:00 pm
David Stanton (Cork East, Fine Gael)
What does the Minister of State mean by the term "secure custody of firearms"? How many firearms are stolen in this country each year? How many of these are later used in the commission of criminal offences and murders? Has the Government considered an amnesty in respect of illegally-held firearms? Recent reports suggested that such a possibility is under consideration. Is that notion being examined or is it dead in the water?
