119 Mr. Ring asked the Taoiseach the number of unemployed people in the social welfare local offices of every town in County Mayo in each of the past three years; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14736/01]
The CSO's live register area analysis shows the number of claimants at each Department of Social, Community and Family Affairs local office. The most recent information available is for April 2001. However, the live register is not a definitive measure of unemployment as it includes part-time workers, seasonal and casual workers entitled to unem ployment assistance or benefit. Statistics on unemployment are measured at regional level by the Quarterly National Household Survey.
