I propose to take Questions Nos. 432 and 433 together.
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. The CSO publishes statistics on the number of criminal incidents recorded and detected, as well as proceedings commenced and convictions. I have requested the CSO to provide such relevant information as is available directly to the Deputy.
