The following table sets out the Exchequer funding for the road safety agencies under the aegis of the Department of Transport for the period 1998 to 2004. The funding provision for each of the organisations supports the carrying out of research into various aspects of road safety by the three bodies. The allocation of specific funding to support such research programmes is a matter for their determination. The funding of any research carried out in relation to traffic law enforcement is a matter for the Garda Síochána and the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform.
