I have requested a report on the information sought by the Deputy from An Garda Síochána, unfortunately the report was not to hand in time. I will write to the Deputy on receipt of the requested information.
The following deferred reply was received under Standing Order 51
I refer to your Parliamentary Question (No. 448 of 7 December 2021) where you sought: “the number of bench warrants currently outstanding in the Garda K district as of 30 November 2021; and the number of these warrants that are outstanding for a minimum 18 months. ”
As you will recall, I sought the information you requested from the Garda authorities and undertook to contact you again once the report was to hand.
I am informed by the Garda authorities that the table below shows counts of outstanding bench warrants that were outstanding on 30 November 2021.
