Vol. 137 No. 8

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - County Kerry Unemployment.

asked the Minister for Social Welfare if he will state the number of unemployed registered at the end of February, in each of the years 1950, 1951, 1952 and 1953 at the Killarney, Kenmare, Killorglin and Cahirciveen Employment Exchanges, County Kerry.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate it in the Official Report.

Following is the statement:—

Number of persons registered at the Local Offices of the Department of Social Welfare mentioned on the Saturday in the last week of February in the years 1950, 1951, 1952 and 1953.
