To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of Garda Síochána checkpoints that took place in 2014 and in 2015 to date; the location of each checkpoint; the number in each locality; the instances of drink-driving, dangerous driving and speeding identified at each checkpoint; the number of each of these instances which resulted in charges being brought against the driver; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

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).
