I wish to ask the Minister of State about the number of scramblers seized since 2021 and if he will give a breakdown of the seizures. I thank the Deputy for his very important question about the number of scramblers that have been seized. As the Deputy will know, the law changed in this regard to allow scramblers to be seized.

A sum of €190,000 was allocated to assist approved projects in 2022 and 2023 and almost €149,000 has been allocated for 2024 to help seize scramblers. The total number of scramblers seized to date across all Garda divisions is 119. The law came into effect in November 2023.
