I am advised by the Garda authorities that the following table shows the number of persons arrested for burglary (or related offences) within Roxboro Road and Henry Street Districts between 2014 and 2018.
I understand that while Limerick City has no specific Garda boundary, it is locally considered to consist of both Roxboro Road and Henry Street District.
I hope this information is of assistance.

As the Deputy is aware, under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management of the courts is the responsibility of the Courts Service, which is independent in exercising its functions, which include the provision of information on the courts system.
However, in order to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have had enquiries made and the Courts Service has provided a report on number of persons convicted of burglary offences for 2014 – 2018 in Limerick Court Area. The Courts Service has advised that this report relates to the District Court Area of Limerick, which includes the venues in Limerick city and Kilmallock.
The Courts Service has further advised that data can only be provided where standard offence codes are used by prosecutors on the Criminal Case Tracking System (CCTS).
