I propose to take Questions Nos. 539 to 542, inclusive, together.

I have made enquiries with the Garda authorities in relation to the information requested by the Deputy. The Garda Division of Clare includes the Garda Districts of Ennis, Ennistymon, Kilrush and Killaloe. The numbers of arrests for assault (minor) offences and public order offences for each of the years 2002 to 2005 and to date in 2006 recorded in the Division are set out in the table. Drunk and disorderly offences are included in the category of public order offences.

Arrests made for assault (minor) offences and public order offences, Clare Garda Division 2002-2006
Assault Minor Public Order Offences
2002 8 477
2003 12 425
2004 14 485
2005 17 764
2006* 7 262
*Figures provided are provisional, operational and liable to change.
