Thank you for your answer, Minister. I am sure that everyone in the House shares the views that you expressed about that very dangerous act at the police station and the danger that was caused to civilians, not least the driver of the vehicle. Minister, can you indicate whether there are any additional cross-border initiatives taking place to ensure that organised crime, such as drug trafficking and human exploitation, and paramilitary crime can be tackled?
