Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 September 2019
295. Deputy Alan Farrell asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of cautions issued under the adult scheme in each of the years 2007 to 2018, by Garda district rather than sub-district and by category of public order, criminal damage and assault in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37562/19]
View answerIn my response to his previous Parliamentary Question No. 545 of 6 September 2019, I was in a position to provide the Deputy with the most readily available figures from An Garda Síochána regarding the number of adult cautions issued by sub-district for the years requested.
In relation to the further breakdown now being sought, I am advised by the Garda authorities that the information is not currently available and would require a disproportionate amount of Garda time and resources to assemble.
However, if the Deputy is seeking information in relation to a particular Garda District, I would be happy to make further enquiries with the Garda authorities on his behalf.
