Vol. 286 No. 11

Written Answers. - Social Welfare Scheme Payments.

143.

asked the Minister for Social Welfare the total weekly/ monthly payments made by his Department under each social welfare scheme at each employment exchange on the latest available date.

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

ESTIMATED total of unemployment assistance, unemployment benefit—(including pay-related unemployment benefit)—and redundancy payments made in the week ended 31st October, 1975, by employment exchanges and employment offices.
