The information requested by the Deputy is contained in the attached spreadsheet. The data was sourced from the HEA Student Records system for the most recent five academic years available, 2017/2018 to 2021/2022 inclusive.

This data outlines the medical student enrolment numbers for Irish Students, including Northern Ireland, per Higher Education Institution, including a percentage breakdown by gender. The information in relation to gender is presented in percentage form, in order to maintain confidentiality in respect of persons identifying as neither male or female. The overall number of medical students from Ireland and Northern Ireland is also included.
