  4. Transport omnibus • Published since 2006 • Compendium of transport statistics – not everything! • Evolving and improving over time • Contains for most part data already published by CSO and other organisations (some exceptions (CSO)– aviation and road traffic volumes)) • HOWEVER, it is resource intensive – 3-4 months for collection and collation of data for publication • It covers the following domains : TranSG meeting 19th September 2013

  6. Use/demand for omnibus Visits on CSO website TranSG meeting 19th September 2013

  7. Recent developments • NTA propose publishing a comprehensive compendium of transport statistics TranSG meeting 19th September 2013

  8. Any overlap? • NTA publication main focus is on land transport • 22% of items to be covered in NTA publication already in CSO omnibus • The following items in the CSO omnibus publication are not included in the proposed NTA compendium: • Data on vehicles other than cars licensed for the first time • Driver & vehicle testing – driving licenses, NCT and driving tests • Penalty points • Aviation transport • Maritime transport TranSG meeting 19th September 2013

  9. Future of omnibus – options for consideration • The omnibus does not cover all transport statistics – is it fit for purpose? • Joint publication with NTA or NTA to take complete responsibility • Majority of CSO statistics in the omnibus are already in the public domain, is there a need to publish them again? Same comment applies to contributory organisations. • Aviation and road traffic volumes although on statbank could potentially be published in separate release format also. • Contributory organisations could embrace the potential of statbank – quicker and more efficient release of data. • Views of users welcome • Do you use it extensively? • Format and content – any suggestions for improvement? • Should there be more or less content? • Written observations requested by 19th October 2013.
