Since 31 July 2008, offences under section 4 and section 5 of the Criminal Justice (Public Order) Act 1994, as amended by the Criminal Justice Act 2006, may be dealt with by way of a fixed charge notice.

I am advised by the Garda authorities that the collating the information sought by the Deputy by Garda sub-district would require a disproportionate amount of Garda time.  

However, An Garda Síochána has provided detail of the fixed charged notices issued for public order offences by Garda Division from 2008 – 30 June 2019.  This information is set out in the attached table, for the information of the Deputy.  I would emphasise that An Garda Síochána has informed me that these figures are provisional, operational and subject to change.

Note: Figures supplied from An Garda Síochána for the period 2008-30 June 2019 and compiled as of the 08/08/2019. All figures are provisional, operational and subject to change.
