Below is a list of all research organisations that are currently registered for the use of research microdata files (RMFs) by CSO. Each registered research organisation has nominated an RMF Contact who will be responsible for coordinating the submission of each research proposal. Researchers who have not previously been appointed as Officers of Statistics are required to contact their organisation’s RMF Contact who will set them up on ROSA. To determine the name and contact details of your research organisation's nominated RMF Contacts, please email rcu@cso.ie from your work/college email account and we will provide that information for organisations that are already registered. The researcher will then need to complete their own registration and training on ROSA.
It should be noted that research organisation registration does not bestow any specific status on the organisation registered or imply any preferential access to RMFs. It simply implies that the organisation level details are held on file within the CSO and that access requests for RMFs themselves will be streamlined, i.e. the organisational level detail will not have to be resubmitted with each RMF access request.
Certain organisations (e.g. private consultancy firms) carry out research on infrastructure projects on behalf of other organisations. These organisations, where approved by the CSO, are permitted to apply for access to the Place of Work, School, College or Childcare Census of Anonymised Records (POWSCCAR) RMF only.
