asked the Minister for Justice the number of cars stolen in Dublin 11 and in each of the other postal districts in Dublin in 1986; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
Written Answers. - Stolen Cars.
50.
It is assumed that the question is intended to include cars taken without the owner's consent even though this is not stealing in the legal sense.
Garda records are not maintained with reference to postal districts and it would not be possible to provide the information requested in the format sought without the commitment of a disproportionate amount of Garda time.
The relevant information with reference to Garda Divisions in the Dublin Metropolitan Areas is as follows:
