73. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of cars reported to An Garda Síochána as stolen and the number of these not recovered in each of the years 2010 to 2016 to date, in tabular form. [18438/16]

The Central Statistics Office (CSO), as the national statistical agency, is responsible for the compilation and publication of the official recorded crime statistics, and the CSO has established a dedicated unit for this purpose. I understand that while statistics in relation to the theft of vehicles are produced the position in relation to the recovery of stolen vehicles is not recorded in the official crime figures.

However, I have asked the CSO to forward the available statistics in relation to the information requested directly to the Deputy.
