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

I have therefore requested the CSO to provide the relevant statistics directly to the Deputy.
