Written answers
I understand that the Deputy is seeking the number of warrants issued by the Courts under Schedule 6, Order 25, Paragraph 2 of Statutory Instrument 41 of 1998 - District Court (Criminal Justice) Rules 1998.
As the Deputy is aware, court proceedings are under the remit of the Courts Service. Management of the courts are the responsibility of the judiciary and Courts Service, which are independent in exercising their functions under the Courts Service Act 1998 and the separation of powers in the Constitution. As Minister I have no role in these independent functions.
The Courts Service has a dedicated email address for the provision of information to members of the Houses of the Oireachtas: oireachtasenquiries@courts.ie.
To be of assistance I have referred the Deputy's question to the Courts Service for direct reply.
