Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 July 2019
814. Deputy Mattie McGrath asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of non-nationals imprisoned here since 2011; the crimes committed by such persons; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32975/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraI can advise the Deputy that the number of non-nationals committed to prison from 2011 until the end of 2018 is included in table 1. This table reports on committals rather than persons, as an individual can be committed more than once in a given year.
I can further advise the Deputy that the number of non nationals held on Remand/Trial warrants over the same period is set out in table 2.
