The Central Statistics Office intends to publish Irish Life Tables No. 17 (2015-2017) in 2019, three years after the 2016 census. The corresponding Irish Life Tables No. 16 (2010-2012) were published in 2015, four years after the 2011 census. Irish Life Tables are calculated based on population data from the census, and three years mortality data centred on the census year. Thus, Irish Life Tables No. 17 will be based on population data from the 2016 census, and mortality data from the years 2015, 2016, and 2017.
