The number of Romani people in Ireland (Irish: Lucht Romanaí in Éirinn) is roughly estimated, as the Central Statistics Office collects its data based on nationality and not ethnic origin. For this reason a precise demographic profile of the Romani in Ireland is not available. Some estimates of Romani in Ireland give the population at 1,700 in 2004,[2] rising to between 2,500 and 3,000 in 2005.[1] The majority derived from Romani populations originating in Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Poland and Italy. Some Roma have also been present in Ireland for centuries because of historical migration from Britain and Continental Europe.[3][4]
