A significant amount of CCTV and mobile phone traffic is being examined and every investigation is overseen by a dedicated team and investigating officer. Arrests have been made, including on 24 May in connection with the shootings of Eddie Hutch Senior and Gareth Hutch, respectively. This situation is reviewed on a weekly basis. I have asked the Minister for Justice and Equality, the Garda Commissioner and the assistant commissioner to come at 7 p.m. this evening for a full security briefing, particularly in respect of the extra facilities and resources being made available in the north inner city to deal with this issue. I will inform the House of the ongoing activity. Believe me, Deputy Martin, the State and the Government will not lie down in front of this intimidation.
