Vol. 538 No. 3

Written Answers. - Missing Persons.

Bernard Allen

Question:

278 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the number of bodies of missing persons the Garda sub-aqua team have found in 1998, 1999, 2000 and to date in 2001 arising from Parliamentary Question No. 315 of 22 May 2001 where that question was answered by supplying the figures of bodies recovered; and if he will state the number of bodies of missing persons found rather than the number of persons recovered for those years. [17679/01]

I understand from the Garda authorities that the statistics provided in response to Parliamentary Question No. 315 of 22 May 2001 represent the total number of bodies of missing persons recovered by the Garda water unit, diving section. Figures are not available according to subcategorisations of "recovered" or "found".
