I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that during 2004 officers attached to their Dublin enforcement district carried out 12 planned and six unplanned visits to Weston Aerodrome. During 2005, ten planned and six unplanned visits were made by officers to Weston Aerodrome. During 2004 and 2005 no instance of smuggling or fraudulent activity regarding aircraft or passengers arriving at Weston Aerodrome was discovered.
