Vol. 177 No. 3

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Dáil Electors in Dublin City and County.

3.

asked the Taoiseach if he will state the estimated population and the estimated number of Dáil electors in respect of (a) each ward in the City of Dublin and (b) each electoral district in the County of Dublin (including Dún Laoghaire).

I propose, with the permission of the Leas-Cheann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report a statement containing the required information. The population figures are derived from the records of the Census of Population, 1956, and those for Dáil Electors are based on the Electoral Register 1959-60.

Following is the statement:—
