460. Deputy Jim O'Callaghan asked the Minister for Justice the number of threat-to-kill incidents reported to gardaí within the R and J districts of the DMR in the years of 2021, 2022 and to date in 2023, in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [30668/23]
View answerAs the Deputy will be aware, the Central Statistics Office (CSO), as the national statistical agency, is responsible for the compilation and publication of all crime statistics. The CSO produces these statistics using data recorded on An Garda Síochána’s PULSE system and makes regular releases under reservation in relation to various crime statistics. The CSO also continues to work with An Garda Síochána to address quality issues in the underlying sources used to compile the statistics.
The Districts referred to by the Deputy are part of the Dublin Metropolitan Region (D.M.R.) North Division. The Garda R District (Coolock District) and the J District (Raheny District).
Figures in respect of "Attempts/threats to murder, assaults, harassments and related offences" and other criminal offences reported to Gardaí in the R and J Districts, can be found on the CSO website at the link below. However, it is worth noting that crime statistics for Q1 of 2023 are not yet available and are due to be published by the CSO in the coming weeks.
