Central Statistics Office Vehicles Licensed for the First Time

Background Notes

Source The vehicle licensing figures are compiled from data supplied by the Department of the Environ-

ment and Local Government, Vehicle Registration Unit. These data provide details on the number

of private cars, goods vehicles, motor cycles and other vehicles licensed for the first time in each

county and county borough, classified by make and size.

History The release titled ‘Vehicles Licensed for the First Time’ commenced in January 1993. It replaced

the series previously published as ‘Particulars of Vehicles Registered and Licensed for the First

Time’.

In January 1993, separate systems for vehicle registration and licensing were introduced. The Of-

fice of the Revenue Commissioners became responsible for the compilation of vehicle registrations

while the Department of the Environment and Local Government retained responsibility for vehi-

cle licensing.

The licensing process where applicable follows the registration process. Registration and licensing

figures may differ in a given month for a number of reasons, some of which are outlined below:

• Vehicles which under the previous system would have been licensed in the latter part of a part-

icular month may not now be licensed until a later month because of the time lapse between

registration and first licensing.

• Vehicles which are not used in a public place (e.g. tractors for use exclusively on the land) are

registered but may not need to be licensed.

Detailed information on agricultural vehicles is published for 1999 in this release in accordance

with Commission Decision 92/157/EEC as upheld on 28th May 1998.

Definitions Second-hand: The term ‘second-hand vehicles’ in this release, refers to imported used vehicles

which are licensed for use in a public place, in this country, for the first time.

Exempt: The term ‘exempt vehicles’ in this release, refers to vehicles which are licensed for the

first time but are exempt from liability to pay road tax. Exempt vehicles can be divided into four

main categories:

• State owned

• Diplomatic

• Fire services

• Disabled drivers
