Vol. 218 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Dublin Population and Valuation Statistics.

16.

asked the Minister for Local Government the population of each of the municipal electoral areas in the County Borough of Dublin; and the changes in population in each area compared with population when the city was last divided into electoral areas.

17.

asked the Minister for Local Government the rateable valuations of each of the municipal electoral areas in the County Borough of Dublin; and the changes in valuation in each of these areas since the city was last divided into electoral areas.

I propose with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to take Questions Nos. 16 and 17 together and, as the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, to circulate it with the Official Report. The figures of population given are the earliest and the latest Census of Population figures published for the electoral areas.

Following is the statement:—

Electoral Area

Population per 1961 Census

Population per 1956 Census

Change in Population +=increase -=decrease

Rateable* Valuation at 1st March, 1965
