My Department has no function in the collection of statistical data regarding the number of overseas visitors to Ireland who rent vehicles during their holiday in Ireland. Both tourism State agencies — Fáilte Ireland and Tourism Ireland — have a role in tracking business from the rent a car sector and as such I have asked them to provide the Deputy with whatever information is available to them in that regard.
