I have contacted An Garda Síochána for the information requested by the Deputy, regretfully this information was not available in time. I will write to the Deputy once the information is to hand.
The following deferred reply was received under Standing Order 51
I refer to your Parliamentary Question No. 547 of 22 November 2022 asking
“if Gardaí will be continuing to record non-crime hate incidents in accordance with the online hate crime reporting facility launched on 21 July 2021, the number of such incidents that were logged by the Gardaí and if those incidents are still live on the Pulse system. “
You will recall that Minister Helen McEntee contacted An Garda Síochána to request the information sought by the Deputy and she undertook to write to you as soon as the information is to hand.
As you are aware, Minister McEntee has now commenced her maternity leave and I have assumed office.
I am advised by the Garda authorities that An Garda Síochána are continuing to record both crime and non-crime hate incidents.
I am further advised that the latest available reporting is available here:
