119. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality if she supports the potential introduction of a new date rape detector kit being available to buy in pubs throughout the country; if she will introduce legislation to provide for this; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [14019/16]

I trust that the Deputy will appreciate that the general approach taken in this jurisdiction in all areas of personal crime prevention has been to provide advice and assistance to the public rather than introducing legislation mandating any particular course of action or product. In this context, An Garda Síochána provide a range of personal crime prevention advice to the public and I have brought the issue raised by the Deputy to their attention.
