2642. Deputy Naoise Ó Muirí asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration the number of orders imposed in each of the last three years under section 113(2) of the Children Act 2001 requiring the payment of compensation or the imposition of a parental supervision order where a wilful failure to control the child contributed to the offending; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management of the courts is the responsibility of the Courts Service, which is independent in exercising its functions, which include the provision of information on the courts system.

However, in order to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have had enquiries made and the Courts Service has advised that courts statistics are not compiled in such a way as to provide the information sought by the Deputy. The Courts Service has further advised that this information could only be obtained by the examination of individual court files in court offices around the country, which would require the expenditure of a disproportionate amount of staff time and resources.
