Question 68: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the progress made by the gardaí into the major money-laundering operation uncovered in early 2005; if a file has been sent to the DPP; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35743/05]

I am informed by the Garda authorities that the Garda investigation remains ongoing. When the investigation is completed, a file will be submitted to the Director of Public Prosecutions. The Deputy will be aware, however, that the Garda Síochána publicly confirmed the link between the money-laundering operation and the proceeds of the Northern Bank robbery. As the Garda investigation is still continuing, a further, detailed comment on the matter would be appropriate.
