Aengus Ó Snodaigh (Dublin South Central, Sinn Fein)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter requiring urgent consideration, namely, the need to welcome the Garda operation in Limerick last night resulting in the seizure of handguns and a quantity of ammunition; the need for the Government to channel more resources into Operation Anvil and Operation Marigold and other measures to tackle gun and drug crime; the need to recognise the young ages of those arrested in Limerick yesterday, namely, four males aged between 16 and 19 and two women in their twenties; and the urgent need for the Government to introduce measures for children and young people aimed at preventing their involvement in and diverting them away from criminal activities.
