Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will provide the figures for burglary detection rates in each Garda district for 2010, 2011 and to date in 2012; and the year on year percentage change in each district and the total national figures. [54169/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 460 and 461 together.
The Garda Síochána Act 2005 makes provision for the compilation and publication of crime statistics by the Central Statistics Office (CSO), as the national statistical agency, and the CSO has established a dedicated unit for this purpose. I have requested the CSO to provide statistics directly to the Deputy.
