As the Deputy will be 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 the performance of its functions.

However, in order to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have had enquiries made and the Courts Service has provided me with the following update.

In terms of Disposed of cases (ICMS) for the CCJ Limerick, Mulgrave street, the numbers, since opening can be seen tabular form below:

YEAR NUMBER
2018 93*
2019 98
2020 226
2021 155
2022 120**

*March to December – Mulgrave Street opened in March 2018)

** January to September 2022
