I can inform the Deputy that the Dublin City Coroner's Office does not record referrals on a district or area basis and that the collation of such information would require a disproportionate use of available resources.

I can however advise the Deputy that the number of deaths reported to the City Coroner for each of the years 2006 to 2010 was as follows: 2006 - 2,417; 2007 - 2,646; 2008 - 2,753; 2009 - 2,910; and 2010 - 2,801.
