I propose to take Questions Nos. 350 and 351 together.

The Garda Síochána Act 2005 makes provision for the compilation and publication of crime statistics by the Central Statistics Office, as the national statistical agency, and the CSO has established a dedicated unit for this purpose.

I am informed that it is not possible for the CSO to provide the specific statistics requested by the Deputy.
