Like title, either work. This article hardly covers the actual impact of the pandemic on crime in Ireland (you know, like, the article title)—it's just a painstakingly detailed account of every crime committed in Ireland from March 2020 to January 2022: a completely arbitrary timeframe. I think this article would be best heavily condensed (
maybe even rewritten from scratch) and combined with a non-
recentist overview of of crime in Ireland, but as that article doesn't exist, there are two other possible candidates—the problem is that the article doesn't discuss the impact whatsoever, so it wouldn't really work.

Comment/support. I note with some interest that Ireland seems to be the only country with a specific "COVID impact on crime" article. And there doesn't appear to have been specific academic or other research (on the topic in Ireland or focusing on Ireland) to justify a stand-alone article of this type. To my mind, there is a case for significant summarisation of the content in the
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on crime in the Republic of Ireland article. Including the unnecessary
WP:NOTNEWS and
WP:RECENTISM "blow-by-blow" stuff about what seems to be every single COVID infection in a prison, random crimes of dubious relevance to COVID [theft from LÉ George Bernard Shaw, fuel theft, tax fraud, etc], individual coughing/spitting incidents, etc. What remains could reasonably be moved/redirected to the
Social_impact_of_the_COVID-19_pandemic_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland#Crime article/section. The stuff on "Operation Fanacht" and "Operation Navigation" could also be covered in related sections in the main "social impact" article. I don't think there's much justification to support creation of a
Crime in the Republic of Ireland article (just to hold/host a random list of crimes). Or much justification for merging "random events things that happened in Ireland" content into the "main"
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on crime article...
