The Deputy will appreciate that it would be contrary to the public interest for me to comment on matters of a security related nature or on the procedures in place for the secure transport of cash.

What I can say is that the Garda authorities work very closely with the banking sector and the cash in transit industry. In this regard the commitment of An Garda Síochána to the protection of cash in transit vehicles is unaltered.
