I am informed by the Garda authorities that the property referred to by the Deputy is currently sub-divided into a number of self-contained units and is located within the Garda sub-district of Clontarf. I am further advised by the Garda authorities that due to intelligence held at the District Drug Unit which indicated that the resident of one of the units was suspected of involvement in the sale and supply of drugs, a surveillance operation was mounted which resulted in a search of the premises on April 3, 2008 during which substances believed to be heroin and cocaine were seized. One person was arrested in relation to this seizure and is currently before the Courts for offences contrary to the Misuse of Drugs Acts, 1977/84. It is also understood that the person in question has since been evicted from this property.
