Written Answers. - Offences Against the Elderly.

493.

asked the Minister for Justice the number of attacks on elderly persons in County Donegal over the period November 1984, to February 1985.

(Limerick East): I am informed by the Garda authorities that a total of thirty-five offences against elderly persons were reported to the Garda in County Donegal between 1 November 1984 and 28 February 1985. While attacks of this nature would always have to be regarded as serious, I understand that in only one case was physical injury caused to an elderly person.
