Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Justice and Equality

I propose to take Questions Nos. 1219 and 1220 together.

Under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management of the courts, is the responsibility of the Courts Service which is independent in its functions. However, in order to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have had enquiries made regarding the number of antisocial behaviour orders issued in Counties Longford and Westmeath in 2019, 2020 and 2021.

The Courts Service has informed me that no antisocial behaviour orders were issued in those counties in any of those years. 

Question No. 1220 answered with Question No. 1219.
