I am informed by the Garda authorities that to compile the information requested by the Deputy would require a disproportionate amount of time and expenditure of Garda resources, as there is no specific code on the Garda PULSE system for the theft of food from shops, only for theft from shops generally. As such it is not possible to provide the specific data requested.
