'Sticking your head in the sand'

Says the poster who choses to ignore the Esri research showing IPAs to be as active in the labour market as the general pop.

All while pushing Putin's propaganda, designed to weaken the EU project which has benefited this country so much.

Conclusion

The CSO's outputs are designed to try to meet user needs as far as possible given the constraints of data availability and the demands of statistical quality. The CSO continues to develop the statistical products it compiles from PULSE data in line with user needs and in response to verified improvements in data quality, for example, the relationship between victims and perpetrators for sexual and assault offences based on good quality data collected by AGS on same.

In summary the following user needs are considered, for the most part to be met:

• Counts of recorded crime incidents classified by offence type, reference period, and AGS administrative areas.
• Proportions of crime incidents which result in detection and those which lead to charge or summons classified by offence type, reference period, and AGS administrative areas.
• Proportions of different sanction types administered to suspected offenders classified by offence type and reference period.
• Counts of recorded victims of serious crime offence types classified by offence type and reference period, age and sex of victim.
• Counts of recorded suspected offenders of serious crime offence types classified by offence type and reference period, age and sex of suspected offender.
• Relationship between victim and perpetrator.
• Discriminatory motives including hate crime, domestic abuse, use of weapons, cyber-related crime.

The following user needs are not currently met:

• Statistics on prosecutions and convictions by specific offence (i.e., Act or Article).
• The nationality, citizenship and ethnicity of crime victims and offenders.

Last line would suggest the powers that be don't have the data to suggest there is no correlation between Crime increase and Asylum seekers or vice versa. So how you or Helen mc entee can suggest otherwise is no different than the posters here suggesting AS are more prevalent to criminality.

The data is there actually, they just choose to not make it available.

I submitted a FOI request around something similar (foreign born recipients of various benefits) and the request was turned down.

It's pretty clear the government want to control the messaging on migration at all costs.

Because they were born here.

It's really not that difficult to work out.

Why would it not make sense to collect and store data on the pulse system . Data around criminals and their backgrounds. This is the system that is used for policing the country. Surely this is the means it should be collected under. As for the other means avaliable for analysis, there is none. the pulse system is the central recording system used by the guards. If it's not collected here, it's not collected. Back of envelopes don't count

All data collected is recorded on pulse. Is that what you are saying. because as linked above nationality is not recorded. So how you can state Crime and AS status has no correlation when the data required to make that assumption is not recorded

You know, just because you keep repeating it does not make it true. 🤣

If they record address then they will have.the stats on how many living in asylum seeker accommodation are committing crimes. Would that not cover it?
