The number of recorded Public Order related offences for the Garda Districts within the Dublin Metropolitan Region (DMR) are set out in the tables below. There are 19 Garda Districts in total — Balbriggan was changed from the Eastern Garda Region to DMR in 2007. Figures are provided from 2003 to the end of March 2008 and are based on data provided to the CSO by the Gardaí in April 2008. The classification system being used is the Irish Crime Classification System (ICCS), first introduced by the CSO in April 2008, full details of which can be found at www.cso.ie. Please note that all figures are provisional and may be subject to change.
