It aims to identify and deport non-Irish nationals convicted of sexual crimes.

25 sex offenders have been deported from the State since the commencement of Operation Moonridge.

It aims to identify and deport non-Irish nationals convicted of sexual crimes.

It started last year, and has since seen 14 non-EU nationals and 11 EU nationals removed from the State and subject to exclusion periods from Ireland.

Justice Minister Jim O'Callaghan says the operation is critical for the protection of people, and for building confidence in the country's immigration system.
