Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 21 February 2013
23. Deputy Mary Lou McDonald asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation if he will detail in monetary value the volume of trade carried out between the north and south of Ireland by sector for the past five years. [9043/13]
View answerThe Central Statistics Office (CSO) views the United Kingdom as a whole for services trade data. Therefore, it is not possible to provide separate Great Britain and Northern Ireland figures. However they can be separated for Goods Trade. The table details the data sought by the Deputy.
