Vol. 200 No. 5

Written Answers. - Agricultural Employment.

73.

asked the Taoiseach if he will give details of changes in agricultural employment between 1961 and 1962 in the form of a reply of 21st March 1962.

The particulars requested by the Deputy are contained in the following table.

It must be pointed out that both because of the fact that the 1961 and 1962 data are based on sample inquiries and because of the relatively small numbers in certain categories, the changes in individual counties cannot be considered reliable.
