Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

I do not have a date for that. The Criminal Law (Human Trafficking) Act has only been in force for the last 12 months and investigations into suspected trafficking are inevitably complex. Since the introduction of the Act the Garda has launched around 80 investigations of trafficking. Work is being undertaken on an operational basis under existing legislation, so it cannot be said there is nothing happening in the area.
