I presume that the Deputy is referring to the European Commission Expert Group on the Fight against Illicit Trade in Tobacco, established in 2017 under the aegis of the European Anti-Fraud Office.

I am advised by Revenue that Ireland will be represented at the Expert Group by an officer of its Investigations and Prosecutions Division, and that the person concerned has no conflicts of interest.
