View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 276 and 277 together.
Statistics and analysis of road deaths in Ireland are in the public domain, and are published by the Road Safety Authority. The Deputy can consult these reports here -
rsa.ie/docs/default-source/about/provisional-review-of-fatalities-2021.pdf?Status=Master&sfvrsn=989299e1_3 - and here -
rsa.ie/road-safety/statistics/road-collisions-annual-report.
The former reports refer to seatbelts as a factor and the latter include county-by-county statistics. As it takes time for analysis of the figures, annual collisions reports are currently available up to 2018 only. The information will become available when the RSA have analysed the data received from An Garda Síochána and the results of inquests.
