Security Minister and Chair of the Organised Crime Task Force Paul Goggins told the audience at the anti money laundering conference in Belfast that he 'means business'.
Emphasising partnership working between the business community and law enforcement agencies in Northern Ireland, he said both have a key role to play in the fight against those who attempt to launder the proceeds of crime.
