Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Dublin and Dún Laoghaire Unemployment.

asked the Minister forSocial Welfare if he will state the number of persons registered as unemployed at each employment exchange in Dublin and in Dún Laoghaire for the latest date available and the corresponding figures for 1950, 1951 and 1952.

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

Following is the statement:—
