Vol. 313 No. 9

Written Answers. - Safe Person Orders.

326.

asked the Minister for Justice the number of Safe Person Orders that have been obtained from the courts in the last five years indicating the number which apply to young children, especially the children of itinerants.

I assume the question relates to orders under section 20 or section 21 of the Children Act, 1908. The position is that the information sought is not available from existing court statistics and could only be compiled by the expenditure of a disproportionate amount of staff time.
