Laghdú suntasach ar raon leathan coireanna – figiúirí sealadacha. There was a significant reduction in the first quarter of the year in a wide range of crimes reported to the Gardaí, including robbery, burglary, theft, violent disorder and crimes against the person. Bhí laghdú suntasach sa chéad ráithe den bhliain ar raon leathan coireanna ar tugadh tuairisc orthu do na Gardaí, lena n-áirítear robáil, buirgléireacht, gadaíocht, mí-ord foréigneach agus coireanna in aghaidh an duine. As for burglaries, the Gardaí say there was a 17% decrease compared to the same quarter last year and a 29% decrease in burglaries involving violence. Mar le buirgléireacht, deir na Gardaí gur laghdú de 17 faoin gcéad a bhí ann i gcomparáid leis an ráithe chéanna anuraidh agus laghdú de 29 faoin gcéad a bhí i gceist i gcás bhuirgléireacht le foréigean. In addition, there was an 8% reduction in assaults resulting in injury. Ina cheann sin, bhí laghdú de 8 faoin gcéad ar ionsaithe ar dhaoine a ndearnadh díobháil dóibh dá mbarr. There was a 25% reduction in robbery and a 27% reduction in robbery from the person. Bhí laghdú de 25 faoin gcéad ar robáil agus laghdú de 27 faoin gcéad ar robáil ón duine. There was a 30% reduction in theft from the person, a 32% reduction in theft from vehicles and a 6% reduction in shoplifting. Bhí laghdú de 30 faoin gcéad ar ghadaíocht ón duine, laghdú de 32 faoin gcéad ar ghadaíocht ó fheithiclí agus laghdú de 6 faoin gcéad ar ghadaíocht ó shiopaí. There was a 14% reduction in bicycle theft. Laghdú de 14 faoin gcéad a bhí ar ghadaíocht rothar. There was also a 40% reduction in the number of serious road accidents, say the Gardaí. Bhí laghdú de 40 faoin gcéad ar an líon timpistí bóthair tromchúiseacha chomh maith, a deir na Gardaí. On average, 130 road accidents occurred every day and 23 drivers were arrested every day for driving under the influence of drink or drugs. Ar an meán, tharla 130 timpiste bóthair gach lá agus gabhadh 23 tiománaí gach lá as tiomáint faoi thionchar an óil nó drugaí. Conversely, there was an increase in a number of crimes in the first quarter of the year, including a significant 61% increase in fraud. Os a choinne sin, bhí méadú ar roinnt coireanna sa chéad ráithe den bhliain, lena n-áirítear méadú suntasach de 61 faoin gcéad ar chalaois. The increase is due to fraud crimes being reported more frequently, say the Gardaí. Coireanna calaoise a bheith á dtuairisciú níos minice is cúis leis an méadú sin, a deir na Gardaí. These are all provisional figures and the Central Statistics Office will publish the official figures next month. Is figiúirí sealadacha iad ar fad agus foilseoidh an Phríomh-Oifig Staidrimh na figiúirí oifigiúla an mhí seo chugainn. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ

Shannon Airport increased its passenger count by over 153,000 last year. For the first time in fifteen years, passenger numbers at the Clare base surpassed 2 million, and it's hoped the relaunch of an express bus service connecting the Airport to Galway could boost footfall again. Shannon boosted both its arrival and departure numbers in 2024. According to the Central Statistics Office's latest Aviation report, both the amount of flyers taking off and touching down in Clare increased by 8%. England was the most popular destination for flyers out of Shannon, accounting for over 391,000 passengers, this was followed by the 168,000 who flew to the United States and the 123,000 going to Spain. In terms of inbound traffic , 400,000 passengers flew into Shannon from the UK, 167,000 touched down from the United States and just below 123,000 came from Spain. In total, Shannon handled just over 2,050,800 passengers last year, 153,000 more than the previous year and the highest on record since 2009. From April 29th, Bus Eireann's expressway service connecting Galway City to Shannon Airport will return. It will four direct routes each way, with the aim of lining up to key transatlantic flight times. Shannon Airport Group Chief Operating Officer Ray O'Driscoll is hopeful they will see very positive results. There was a slight drop in the freight and commercial traffic handled at Shannon last year, however. Shannon dealt with over 16 tonnes of freight traffic over the past twelve months, with the majority of goods coming and going to Germany. There were also just over 14,800 commercial flights facilitated at Shannon, down from 15,000 the year before, with the UK and the United States again the most popular destinations.

An líon táirgí cógaisíochta a easpórtáltar as Éirinn ag méadú. The value of pharmaceutical products exported from this country in February this year was €15.6 billion, compared with €9.2 billion in February last year, according to preliminary figures from the Central Statistics Office.

Is solaoid é freisin ar thábhacht na hearnála cógaisíochta in Éirinn agus ar an dochar a dhéanfadh taraifí don earnáil sin agus don gheilleagar trí chéile. The preliminary figures also show that the value of goods purchased by the United States from this country in February this year was €12.9 billion, compared to €4.2 billion in February last year, an increase of 210.5% over the course of a year. Léiríonn na réamhfhigiúirí chomh maith go raibh luach €12.9 billiún sna hearraí a cheannaigh na Stáit Aontaithe ón tír seo i mí Feabhra i mbliana, i gcomórtas le €4.2 billiún i mí Feabhra anuraidh, ar méadú de 210.5 faoin gcéad é sin in imeacht bliana.

It's being argued that people of a criminal mindset in Clare are taking advantage of the lack of a Garda presence. New figures released by the Central Statistics Office show that public order and other social code offences are up 27% here in the last year with 138 recorded between June and August. It comes less than a month after the Department of Transport revealed of the 133 vehicles in the Clare/Tipperary Garda Division's fleet, just 53 serve this county.

A Minister of State admits the next generation of Clare farmers will only remain in the sector if the level of income is on par with that of other industries. The Central Statistics Office has found this month that land prices are growing at a faster rate in the Midwest than in any other region, and farming representatives have reported that factors such as this are prompting young farmers to leave the sector in their droves. According to the Irish Farmers' Association, 20% of the workforce in Clare is involved in the agricultural sector, with the average age of a farmer here being 59. Speaking during a visit to the Clare Marts in Ennis, Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture Martin Heydon when it comes to succession planning, young farmers need to know their future is secure.

It's claimed a lack of young people entering farming coupled with the nitrates derogation has caused land prices to soar in Clare. New data from the Central Statistics Office shows the average price of a hectare of farm land in the MidWest rose by 35% to over €25,300 last year ,which is the greatest increase nationwide. This is despite a sharp decline in the number of transactions across Clare, Limerick and North Tipperary, with just 476 land sales taking place last year, compared to 556 in 2022. Clare Irish Creamery and Milk Suppliers Association Chair Martin McMahon says farmers are either selling for retirement or buying to keep their herd count, leading to price hikes.

The Clare branch of the Community Action Tenants Union claims the Government is deliberately making it difficult to crackdown on rule-breaking in the rental sector to keep landlords on side. It comes as the Residential Tenancies Board says it may seek new powers to inspect properties suspected of being unregistered tenancies. An analysis by the Central Statistics Office earlier this year found that as many as 11% of tenancies in Clare could be unregistered, which was the joint-highest percentage nationwide. Chairperson of CATU's Clare branch, George Stavrou, believes vested interests are preventing politicians from lobbying for the RTB to have more power.

The meeting heard that North Clare communities such as Lisdoonvarna and Ballyvaughan have been put under particular pressure in recent years and that while they've extended a warm "céad míle fáilte", there's only so much they can be expected to do. Figures from the Central Statistics Office show that the Ennistymon region, which encompasses most of North Clare, has the highest proportion of Ukrainian refugees of any Local Electoral Area in the country at over 12%. Councillor Rita McInerney believes it's also important that the welfare of those living in hotels and B&Bs is taken into account.

The Central Statistics Office released a new report that shows that the median annual electricity bill in Ireland was €880 last year - 3% lower than in 2022. But in 2 counties, the median bill was over €1,000. 58% of households in Ireland paid less than €1,000 for their electricity in 2023, compared to 56% in 2022 and 35% in 2021, the CSO report shows. The lowest electricity bills were found mostly along the west coast, while the counties with the highest bills were mostly in the east and southeast. The highest median electricity bills in 2023 were in Kildare (€1,020), Meath (€1,011), and Wicklow (€976). The third and fourth highest bills were in Carlow and Laois, with median costs of €951 and €950 respectively. The lowest bills were in Donegal (€726), Leitrim (€753), and Mayo (€799). In Roscommon, the median bill was €813 and it was €830 in Kerry. Other findings include more than a quarter of homes in Kildare with a BER certificate using electricity as their main space heating fuel, compared with just 15% in Donegal. Briain Kelly of EnergyEfficiency.ie offered some practical advice for homeowners looking to pay less for their electricity over the coming months. "There are some simple ways that people can lower their electricity bills, and it is a good idea to switch providers regularly to get the best deal," said Briain Kelly. "The second is to monitor your consumption and see whether a different plan might work for you. For instance, if you have an EV and don't consume much electricity during the day, then a night boost plan with very low overnight rates might suit you." "Simple habit changes can also save you a fortune - things like taking shorter showers, closing doors behind you, and using more energy-efficient appliances," said Kelly, "home energy upgrades can slash your annual bills by hundreds of euros. These upgrades include door replacements, triple glazing windows, better insulation and solar panels."

The President of Ennis Chamber has suggested conformity to outdated gender roles is to blame for a gender pay gap in Clare. A new analysis of weekly earnings in Ireland shows while wages are rising for both men and women in Clare, the gap has widened between their respective earnings. The Central Statistics Office's latest analysis of mean and median weekly earnings is based on Revenue's employee tax data concering employees earning €500 or more annually and working for at least two weeks in a year. The data shows that men in Clare earn an average of €761 a week which is up 5% from 2022. This is 24% above the median weekly earnings of women in the county who make just €612.76 per week and have seen an increase of just 3% in the space of a year. Clare's average earnings are the 10th highest in the country - with Dublin, Kildare and Meath having the highest. Clare women also have the 10th highest earnings nationwide, while the earnings of men are ranked eighth nationally. President of Ennis Chamber of Commerce and Partner at Cashin Clancy Solicitors Sheila Lynch says women are earning less because they're more likely to take on part-time roles which allow them to look after dependent family members. The median weekly earnings of a worker in Clare last year were €687.03 which is just under 2% below the national average of €699.28. However, it was up 4% from the previous year when the median in Clare was €659.86 per week.

The number of Irish people leaving Ireland has reached its highest point in almost a decade.

This is the highest emigration figure since 2015. For more on this, Alan Morrissey spoke with Sarah Mulcahy who is from Shannon and is currently living in Australia.

Clare's MEP claims closing Ireland's borders "isn't compatible with the real world". New data from the Central Statistics Office shows immigration in this country is at its highest point in 17 years with 142,000 arriving in the year to April. In the same period, 69,000 people left Ireland which is its highest emigration figure since 2015. Scariff MEP Michael McNamara says immigration will always be an aspect of Irish life but the speed at which asylum claims are processed here can be improved.

The Chair of the Clare Tourism Advisory Board claims increased tourist traffic doesn't necessarily mean greater profits for tourism-dependent businesses. The latest Central Statistics Office figures show the number of foreign visitors to Ireland in June was up 8% compared to the same month last year with 669,500 having visited our shores across the month. The average vistor spent €1,437 over the course of their trip with €458 going towards accommodation - up from €435 in June 2023.

New figures from the Central Statistics Office shows 21% of all electricity generated for the national grid last year was used to power over 80 facilities across the country. In June, Futureproof Clare initiated a judicial review against a proposed €1.2bn Data Centre in Ennis, which would require 200MW (Mega-Watts) of electricity and the construction of a gas powered energy centre to operate. Scariff based member Sinéad Sheehan claims the facility would place a disproportionate drain on local resources.

An average of ten people are drowning in the country every month according to new research published by Irish Water Safety. Tá deichniúr ar an meán á mbáthadh sa tír gach mí de réir thaighde nua atá foilsithe ag Sábháilteacht Uisce na hÉireann. People are drowning at all times of the year at sea and on waterways, and 118 drowned from 2019-2023 says the organization in the new report. Tá daoine á mbáthadh ag gach tráth den bhliain ar muir agus ar bhealaí uisce, agus 118 báite ó 2019-2023 a deir an eagraíocht sa tuarascáil úr. 70% of them were men and boys and more than half of the total were middle-aged, between 40 and 69 years old. Fir agus buachaillí 70 faoin gcéad dóibh agus bhí níos mó ná leath den iomlán meánaosta, idir 40 agus 69 bliain d'aois. 78 drowned last year, 15 less than 2022. Báthadh 78 anuraidh, 15 níos lú ná 2022. The figures from the Central Statistics Office show that 57% of people drowned by accident between 2017 and 2021. Léiríonn na figiúirí ón bPríomh-Oifig Staidrimh gur tré thimpiste a báthadh 57 faoin gcéad de na daoine idir 2017 agus 2021. Along the coast 80% of the people drowned. Cois cósta a báthadh 80 faoin gcéad de na daoine. On a river or lake the rest died. Ar abhainn nó loch a bhásaigh an chuid eile. In Co Mayo the rate was highest last year when 8 out of every 100,000 people drowned. I gCo Mhaigh Eo is airde a bhí an ráta anuraidh nuair a báthadh 8 as gach 100,000 duine. The highest number was in Co Cork - 15 drowned there. I gCo Chorcaí a bhí an líon is airde – 15 a báthadh ansiúd. "People are more aware of the danger" says Joanne Walsh, Chief Executive of Irish Water Safety. "Tá tuiscint níos mó ar an gcontúirt ag daoine" a deir Joanne Walsh, Príomhfheidhmeannach Shábháilteacht Uisce na hÉireann. "The share of the number who drown while swimming or diving is decreasing" she says "and the figure is now 25% of the total." "Tá an sciar den líon a báthadh agus iad ag snámh nó ag tumadh ag laghdú" a deir sí "agus an figiúr anois ag 25 faoin gcéad den iomlán." Joanne Walsh stated that 60% of the number of people who drown by accident are related to "events on land, such as people walking a cliff or hiking or hunting." Luaigh Joanne Walsh go mbaineann 60 faoin gcéad den líon daoine a báthadh tré thimpiste le "imeachtaí ar tír, ar nós daoine ag siúl aille nó ag siúlóireacht nó ag sealgaireacht." They will now focus more, she says, on the danger associated with such actions. Beidh siad feasta ag díriú tuilleadh a deir sí ar an gcontúirt a bhaineann le gníomhartha den chineál sin. She urged people to remember the acronym "SAFE - Stay away from edges." D'ímpigh sí ar dhaoine cuimhniú ar an acrainm "SAFE - Stay away from edges." "You could be out walking in the summer when there is a lot of growth and you might not see the edge of the river, or the lake. "D'fhéadfá a bheith amuigh ag siúl sa samhradh nuair atá fás mór déanta agus b'fhéidir nach bhfeicfeá ciumhais na habhann, nó na locha. And in winter, although it is bare, the edge is not as strong as the ground could give it. Agus sa ngeimhreadh, cé go bhfuil sé lom feannta, níl an chiumhais chomh láidir agus d'fhéadfadh an talamh tabhairt uaidh. You have to be careful, and always remember SAFE - Stay away from edges." Ní mór a bheith ar aire, agus cuimhnigh i gcónaí ar SAFE - Stay away from edges."

The Central Statistics Office predicts Ireland's population could surge to 7.5 million by 2057, mostly due to inward migration. What could this mean for Ireland's future? Are we already at maximum capacity as it is? We argue for boosting local industries to match the high productivity of multinationals, crafting a vibrant and resilient economy for the future. We kick off by examining the recent Microsoft outage, exposing the fragility of our hyper-connected global economy.
