I am informed by the Garda authorities that the number of fixed charge notices issued for speeding was 143,651 in 2005 and 152,669 in 2006 (up to 30 September). I am also informed that the number of drink driving related incidents recorded on PULSE was 13,727 in 2005 and 12,829 in 2006 (up to 30 September).

Statistics are provisional, operational and liable to change.
