45. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Taoiseach his views on a day of commemoration for those that have lost their lives to Covid-19 following consultation with his Department; and if there are plans within Departments to progress such proposals. [63369/21]
View answerAs we continue to live with the COVID-19 pandemic it will be important as a people that we pause and reflect, take time to remember and pay tribute both to those who have lost their lives in this terrible pandemic and to everyone who has contributed to how we have faced and are facing the challenges together.
A Public Holiday is to be held on 18th March 2022 in recognition of the efforts of the general public and Ireland’s frontline workers during the Covid-19 pandemic and in remembrance of people who lost their lives due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
In addition, a national commemorative event will be organised which will be inclusive and reflect the experiences of all those who have suffered loss during the pandemic. The arrangements for this are currently being finalised and there will be an announcement by my Department in due course.
46. Deputy Peter Burke asked the Taoiseach if he will provide an update on the Future of Media Commission report; if the report has been completed and submitted to his Department and the Government; and when it is planned to consider and publish this report. [63440/21]

The Chair of the Commission, Professor Brian MacCraith, has submitted the final report to both me and the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media.

48. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Taoiseach if it is planned to amend the manner in which questions in the census are answered for all in a house, hotel or other establishment by one person; and if he plans to review the census form ahead of the next collection of information. [1053/22]
View answerFor Census 2022, each private household will receive a census Household form to be completed by any adult member of the household in respect of each person present in the household on Census Night as well as any usual residents of the household who are temporarily absent. There will be a facility for each member of the household to request a separate Individual form to complete their responses which can be returned to the Enumerator in a sealed privacy envelope.
In communal establishments such as hotels and hospitals, each person present on Census Night will receive a separate Individual form to be completed and returned to the Enumerator. Privacy envelopes will also be available for these forms.
The questions for Census 2022 were finalised in 2019 and the forms were printed during 2020. This followed a public consultation process regarding questionnaire content in 2017 and a pilot survey to test new questions in 2018. In advance of the next census after 2022, CSO would expect to hold a public consultation on form content inviting members of the public and interested stakeholders to provide suggestions for new questions and revisions to existing ones..

The exact information requested by the Deputy is not available.
The Labour Force Survey (LFS) is the official source of employment estimates in the State. The most recent figures available are for Q3 2021.
The quarterly LFS employment estimates are produced by NUTS3 Regions (NUTS3 is a geocode standard referencing the eight subdivisions of Ireland for statistical purposes ). Due to the methodology and sample size of the survey it is not possible to produce reliable county estimates from the LFS.
The NUTS3 Mid-West region includes counties Clare, Limerick and Tipperary.
Due to changes made under the 2014 Local Government Act, the current NUTS3 region LFS series is available from Q1 2012, see link to an Information Note published by the CSO which details these changes.
