The Census Preliminary Results were published on Thursday 14 July 2016. This report contains a preliminary count of the population by County, Electoral Division and Dáil Constituency. It also contains preliminary data on total housing stock, along with figures on the number of holiday homes and other vacant dwellings by Electoral Division. The results are available on the CSO website in the form of electronic release, interactive tables, and interactive maps.

Processing and capture of the complete census data is scheduled to be completed by December this year. The first definitive results of the census are due to be published in March 2017. The remaining results will be released throughout 2017 in the form of published reports, electronic releases and Small Area Population Statistics in an interactive mapping tool. This will include a wide range of analysis across all census variables such as age, sex, marital status, migration, nationality, disability, travel patterns, education, industry and occupation.

It is planned to publish the detailed Census 2016 publication timetable in September 2016. The overall strategic goal is to maintain the 2011 timetable.

The following table contains the 2016 preliminary population for each constituency under the Electoral (Amendment) Act 2009:
