Report indicates suicide rate going down in Ireland
Ireland's suicide rate has stabilised since the economic crash and early data suggests it is decreasing, according to a HSE report.
The National Office for Suicide Prevention Annual Report says that more than 80% of cases involve men.
Instances of self-harm also seem to be stabilising.
Just over 8,900 people were seen at hospitals last year in cases of self harm, which is in line with the 2015 figure.
