Mr. Richard McMahon:

We are identifying them. We publish a detailed quality report where we indicate the data sources that we have examined and the issues that have been identified and make recommendations to address the problems. Those reports are published. We have close co-operation with the Garda and run through the reports with it to outline the difficulties and our proposals on improving the quality of the statistics.
