I propose to take Questions Nos. 102 and 103 together.
I have requested a report from the Garda authorities in relation to the information requested by the Deputy and I will contact the Deputy directly upon receipt of the relevant information.
Insofar as conviction statistics are concerned, the Courts Service is not in a position to match specific prosecutions initiated to court results.
