The Department of Transport shares its own data with statutory authorities under its remit, with Government Departments, and other public service bodies for the provision of services to citizens and to enable the operation of public services.
The Department of Transport only shares data where a sound legal basis to do so exists. An effective governance framework is in place to ensure all data shared from the Department of Transport has a sound legal basis and complies with GDPR.
Data and statistics about speeding and other road traffic offences are captured and stored by An Garda Síochána in the first instance.
