What is the meaning of 'seized'?
Seized, just means captured or confiscated, and ‘the matter’ just means considering the case. These kinds of wordings are usually used in criminal investigation cases. So you could translate it to, something that was captured or confiscated, and that will continue until the situation is resolved.
I am sure more gets in that is being "seized". In any event, you are more concerned about the meaning of "seized" than the implication.
This past February, enough fentanyl has been seized at US borders in the last three months to kill over a billion people. That's concerning.
If that drug was introduced into our food chain by a terrorist, it would be catastrophic. Right now we are just worried about street drugs, and the kids, but everyone should be worried, no one is excluded if in the wrong hands and someone had a grudge against humanity and the US.
