Joe Costello (Dublin Central, Labour)

I wish to seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to discuss a matter of urgent public concern, namely, the recent seizure of four large quantities of drugs which were destined for the Irish drugs market; the fact that each of the heroin seizures was equal to or in excess of the total amount of heroin seized in over 700 Garda operations in 2005; and the fact that the problem of illegal drugs is out of control.
