Police Service of Northern Ireland Assistant Chief Constable, Crime Department, Davy Beck said:

“I very much welcome this significant seizure and the arrests made by our colleagues in An Garda Síochána, with whom we work very closely on a daily basis.  This underlines our joint commitment to address the threat posed by violent dissident republican groups and keep communities safe. 

“We will continue to liaise closely with An Garda Síochána in relation to their investigation, and provide any support as required.”
