Non-detection rate of sexual crime

The percentage of sexual crimes reported to an Garda Síochana that are marked as "detected" and not marked as "detected".

Detection rates are measured eight months after the end of a particular year and tend to rise over time as investigations are completed before settling. So therefore, detection rates for 2023 for some crime categories are likely to be lower than in earlier years and users should note this when making comparisons over time.
