Abstract: We study conditions on a $ C^*$-dynamical system $ (A,G,\alpha)$ under which induction of primitive ideals (resp. irreducible representations) from stabilizers for the action of $ G$ on the primitive ideal space $ \mathrm{Prim}(A)$ give primitive ideals (resp. irreducible representations) of the crossed product $ {A \rtimes_\alpha G}$. The results build on earlier results of Sauvageot and others and will correct a (possibly overly optimistic) statement of the first author. In an appendix, the first author takes the opportunity to fill a gap in the proof of an earlier result.
