During the spat over the conference season, two things came into the public view, including the issue of categorisation of crime. I have spoken to gardaí who seem to be of the view that crime is being incorrectly categorised. For example, what might previously have been defined as a burglary is now defined as criminal damage or trespass or some other less serious offence. I have no idea whether that is true but I am interested in the Commissioner's perspective.
