The monthly report provided a breakdown of people registered as homeless per county.

Locally, there were 166 people in hospitals across the Shannonside region with the flu yesterday.

716 ESB customers are without electricity as a result of the yellow wind warning that was issued for Co. Leitrim over the weekend.

15 homes in Ballyfarnon in North Roscommon are still affected, with another 39 in Ballinamore, Co. Leitrim, currently waiting for their electricity supply to be restored.

31,000 Shannonside premises were initially impacted.

At one stage, almost 31,000 homes and businesses in Leitrim, Longford and Roscommon were experiencing blackouts.

The ESB says they've reached out to customers in the worst-impacted areas of Leitrim and north Roscommon who may be out of power until the weekend.

The findings come from a recent release compiled by the Society of the Irish Motor Industry.
