Tackling domestic violence and supporting victims are key priorities for me as Minister for Justice and for Government as a whole. This is something that the Garda Commissioner and An Garda Síochána also attaches the highest priority to.
In relation to the specific information sought by the Deputy, I am informed by An Garda Síochána that there is no location type of ‘Domestic Violence Shelter’ in PULSE and therefore it is not possible to provide the information sought.
In this regard, I refer the Deputy to parliamentary question 473 of the 15th November 2022, which may be of interest, in so far as it outlines figures relating to domestic abuse incidents across all divisions of An Garda Síochána in the year to date, including the number of calls received by An Garda Síochána to respond to domestic abuse incidents; the number of criminal charges referred for breaches of domestic abuse court orders; the number of criminal charges reported for alleged crimes involving an element of domestic abuse.
