Best practices in modern road safety strategy:
The basic strategy of a Safe System approach is to ensure that in the event of a crash, the impact energies remain below the threshold likely to produce either death or serious injury. This threshold will vary from crash scenario to crash scenario, depending upon the level of protection offered to the road users involved. For example, the chances of survival for an unprotected pedestrian hit by a vehicle diminish rapidly at speeds greater than 30 km/h, whereas for a properly restrained motor vehicle occupant the critical impact speed is 50 km/h (for side impact crashes) and 70 km/h (for head-on crashes).

Explanation:
The National Strategy for Higher Education set out a vision of Irish higher education to 2030. It reaffirmed the fundamental importance of excellent teaching and learning, quality in research and knowledge transfer, and effective engagement between higher education and society. In particular, it identified the challenge and opportunities of growing demand for higher education arising from Ireland’s demographic growth, which is relatively unique in the European context. The need to provide for workforce up-skilling and for our system to be internationally networked and performing to international benchmarks were also identified.
The National Strategy identified a comprehensive policy and development framework for higher education, recognising the central role of Irish higher education institutions in the future development of Ireland, socially and economically, and some structural changes that need to be made in Irish higher education. It recognised that new approaches to the funding of institutions are necessary to support increased participation alongside quality outcomes and experiences. It also proposed more effective systems to drive performance and accountability.
This report to the Minister for Education and Skills sets out how the Higher Education Authority believes key elements the National Strategy can become a reality. It builds on a year-long process of research, analysis and engagement undertaken by the HEA.
This report focuses primarily on the broad system outcomes required of higher education, the system configuration principles on which these are based, and the proposed configuration and related governance arrangements. However, the HEA recognises that reform of the structures of higher education is merely an enabler of the much deeper reform envisaged in the National Strategy. Among these reforms are a shifting of the focus from inputs into the system to outcomes from the system and building upon and disseminating best practice and innovation across the system – for example, through the establishment of the Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning. We also acknowledge the importance of capturing outcomes and levels of satisfaction (which is the focus of the National Student Survey and the National Employers Survey), and of the development of a national framework for PhD education. This document and our recommendations are, therefore, among a suite of actions and policies that will, over time, fundamentally reform our higher education system and lead to better outcomes for students and for Irish society
The actions recommended in this report will need the ongoing and concerted commitment of the HEA working closely with individual institutions and their staff to ensure that Irish higher education is sustainable, successful and competitive. This requires institutions to develop a strong vision that reflects their mission. Over time, these changes will ensure that the higher education system plays its full part in Ireland’s social and economic development and in the enrichment of our cultural and intellectual life.
