Referred to CSO for answer
The Central Statistics Office does not compile or publish data on the citizenship or nationality of persons convicted of homicide offences in the State.
The CSO receives data on homicide offences via the quarterly PULSE extract from An Garda Síochána and this data does not contain information about the citizenship or nationality of suspected offenders.
The Garda Commissioner is operationally responsible for PULSE data.
