I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the threat to the safety of house occupants caused by the huge increase in home burglaries and break-ins which have risen by one third in the past year, according to figures published by Eircom PhoneWatch, with €100 million worth of goods being stolen from homes, with the biggest increase occurring in areas outside Dublin and with 80% of robberies and burglaries taking place while occupants are in their homes leaving them open to violent assault.
