2500. Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration the country of birth of each person convicted of a crime for each of the last 10 years; to detail these figures separately for violent crime and non-violent crime. [62854/26]

The Department does not record data relating to convictions, as this is a function of the Courts Service.

The management of the courts, operational matters and logistical functions are the responsibility of the judiciary and Courts Service, which are independent in exercising their functions under the Courts Service Act 1998 and the Constitution. As Minister, I have no role in these matters.

The Deputy may also wish to note that the Courts Service has a dedicated email address for the provision of information to members of the Houses of the Oireachtas: oireachtasenquiries@courts.ie.
