Cannabis sweets are becoming a problem in Carlow and Kilkenny.
A batch of the confectionary, which was packaged to look like well-known brands but was actually infused with the drug, was seized during a planned search of a house in County Carlow.
There has been a noted increase in the seizure of these types of drugs in Waterford & Kilkenny-Carlow Garda Divisions this year.
A number of children at various points of the country, some as young as three, have had to be rushed to hospital after eating these types of sweets accidentally.
