193. To ask the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the number of convicted sex offenders in prison here; the number of these that are for child sex offences; the number of convicted sex offenders that have completed their sentences; the number of these that were for child sex offences and are subject to reporting requirements; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am advised by the Irish Prison Service that there were 375 prisoners in custody under sentence for offences of sexual nature on 3 May 2018.
The Irish Prison Service does not receive age profile information on the victims of sex offenders therefore it is not possible to provide the information in the format requested by the Deputy. The Courts Service and An Garda Siochána have also confirmed that they do not collate offence data in the format requested.
