Ceist:

12 Mr. Quinn asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the number of barring orders granted against men for every year that information is available since 1990; the number of barring orders granted against women for every year that information is available since 1990; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The information requested by the Deputy is set out in a tabular statement which has been circulated in the Official Report.

However, court records are not maintained in such a way as to provide a gender breakdown of the applicants for barring orders.
