Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Boys and Girls Reaching School-leaving Age.
5.
I propose with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report, a statement showing preliminary estimates of the numbers of boys and girls reaching the age of 14 years in each of the years 1960 to 1970 inclusive. A revised estimate will be prepared when the age classification from the 1961 Census becomes available.
Following is the statement:
