My Department has sought the information requested by the Deputy from An Garda Síochána and I will contact the Deputy directly on receipt of a Garda report.

The Deputy may be interested to note that the Road Safety Authority recently published (2 January 2018) a provisional review of fatal collision statistics for 2017 following an analysis of the fatality reports provided by An Garda Síochána.  This review is available on www.rsa.ie. The analysis conducted does not comprehend the variable "disqualification", however includes variables such as "month of year", "day of week", "where fatalities occurred", "age profile" and "road user type".
