I can inform the Deputy that the statistics requested are not available from the Garda authorities. A range of information is available on the Garda website in relation to road traffic matters, including with respect to the number of mandatory alcohol testing (MAT) checkpoints held in 2014 and to end September 2015 (78,000 and 59,426 respectively).
