Michael D'Arcy (Wexford, Fine Gael)

I am referring to approximately €4 million in social welfare fraud saved by the CAB. It should be €4 million a month. A number of criminals go to dole offices. How much liaison is there between the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform, the Garda and the Department of Social and Family Affairs? Are they liaising on the ground on a district by district and Garda station by Garda station basis? That is what should be happening. Without doing that the Minister's response is irrelevant at a time when people on the ground are acting criminally.
