364. Deputy Ken O'Flynn asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration the number of investigations commenced by An Garda Síochána since 1 January 2024 involving suspected money laundering through retail premises selling vaping or tobacco products, nationally and in the Cork City and Cork North Garda Divisions; the number of actions taken by the Criminal Assets Bureau in respect of such premises; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [75283/26]

I have requested the information sought by the Deputy from the Garda authorities. Regrettably, this was not available in time and I will write to the Deputy once the information is to hand.
