Welcome to StatCentral.ie
In Ireland, official statistics are those produced by the Central Statistics Office (CSO), along with some government departments, agencies and other state bodies. Most of these are available on the web through a variety of websites and formats. The StatCentral portal provides standard documentation on these statistics and links to where they can be found.
This portal was released on a preliminary basis on 10 March 2008 with a limited range of statistics, and was officially launched on 3 December 2008 with a fuller range of statistics. Its coverage will shortly be complete and thereafter it will be kept up to date.
We hope that this portal will help you to find the statistics you need. We are constantly working to improve our site and would value your comments or suggestions. (See Feedback above) If you experience any problems using our site please mail us at egov@cso.ie.
StatCentral.ie is committed to providing a portal
to all
on-line Irish Official Statistics
How to use the portal

Select a subtheme to get a list of statistics, and select a statistic to go to the documentation page for that statistic. From there you can link directly to the source website that hosts the statistic.
