The CSO has published new data on the detection of crime last year.
But there’s been a massive drop in the number of murders, according to new crime statistics.
It’s not all bad news however, murder offences have fallen by almost a third.
The latest crime statistics also show a rise in burglaries and fraud.
The force is piloting a new incident recording process to ensure reported crimes are recorded consistently.
The crime statistics released earlier this week pointed to an increase in fraud, burglary and sexual assaults in Kerrykeel.
Justice Minister Alan Shatter said the overall drop in crime lat year provides reassurance that “efficiencies” are making a real contribution to public safety.
