Diesel laundering in Louth
Senator Jim D’Arcy asks the Leader to obtain a report on diesel laundering in County Louth and the effectiveness of new licensing laws.
I beg the Senator's pardon and thank him. It is great to have a literary sidekick in the House and I look forward to discussing that with him in Strasbourg next week.
The Minister of State at the Department of Finance, Deputy Simon Harris, needs to come to the House to discuss the dumping of laundered diesel throughout last week in County Louth. The new licensing laws are only partly working. Will the Leader ask for an up-to-date report from the Minister of State regarding how the Department is coping with diesel laundering?
