Written Answers. - Departmental Statistics.

Basic responsibility for production of transport statistics rests with the Central Statistics Office.
The CSO is at present engaged in carrying out a survey of road freight transport which should help to provide up to date information in these areas. I am not aware of any complaints about the inadequacy of statistics in relation to sea and air transport.
