I am informed by the Garda authorities that data entered onto PULSE, the crime recording system, is entered in compliance with the Data Protection Acts. I am further informed that incidents where required are updated and marked invalid if such be the case. If a person is not convicted in a court the result of the case is marked as non-conviction.
