I propose to take Questions Nos. 52 and 53 together.
As the Deputy is aware the Central Statistics Office (CSO), as the national statistics agency, is responsible for the compilation and publication of the official recorded crime statistics. It is unclear if the Deputy's question refers to a specific offence category and, in this regard, I am advised that the CSO are unable to provide the particular information sought in this instance.
