I am advised by the Garda authorities that information in respect of monies seized in conjunction with drug seizures is not recorded as a compulsory field on the Garda IT system. It is not therefore possible to provide the information requested without undertaking an extensive manual examination of each drug-related incident for the years 2007 and 2008. This process would necessitate the expenditure of a disproportionate amount of Garda time and resources in order to provide the information required.
