As the Deputy is no doubt aware, an Garda Síochána is involved in the security and protection of explosives (which could include gelignite type explosives) while they are being transported, stored and/or utilised. An Garda Síochána do not however, as a matter of policy and security, disclose the nature of the procedures in place in this regard.
