Public Accounts Committee

2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána

9:30 am

Mr. Drew Harris:

We have recorded 134 crimes which initially had been missed during that period. That is about 2.5% of the incidents that were cancelled. The majority offence is minor assault. We have run into problems in respect of matters being statute-barred. As a result, some of the prosecutions cannot be followed through on.
