Question:

422. Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will provide in tabular form by district a breakdown of the latest crime statistics. [41792/13]

Written answers

Minister for Justice and Equality

The Garda Síochána Act 2005 makes provision for the compilation and publication of crime statistics by the Central Statistics Office (CSO), as the national statistical agency, and the CSO has established a dedicated unit for this purpose.

I have requested the CSO to provide statistics directly to the Deputy.
