Vol. 280 No. 4

9.

(Dublin Central) asked the Taoiseach the number of (a) industrial disputes (b) man-days lost and (c) workers involved in disputes in (i) the manufacturing sector (ii) the services sector and (iii) other sectors during 1974.

With the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, I propose to circulate in the Official Report a statement giving the data requested for the groupings normally used.

Following is the statement:
