Meanwhile, Kildare is among the areas set to benefit from a new round of funding that channels the proceeds of crime back into local communities.
CAB returned €17m to the state last year.
The Criminal Assets Bureau also seized 20 homes which were the proceeds of crime.
The Justice Minister will present the latest annual report from CAB at the cabinet meeting today.
It contains details of 20 homes seized by the agency last year - the highest number ever in a single year.
Among them was a home in Saggart formerly owned by Daniel Kinahan.
It was sold at auction for over €930,000 - the highest figure achieved for any confiscated asset to date.
€17m was returned to the state by CAB in 2024 - €5m from property sales - €13m from Revenue, and around €500,000 from social welfare.
The 20 homes sold compares to 12 seized in 2023.
