asked the Taoiseach the number of persons, distinguishing between male, female and juvenile and between persons entitled to benefit or assistance, registered at each of the employment exchanges in the Dublin area at the latest convenient date.

With your permission, Sir, I propose to circulate in the Official Report a statement giving the required information.

Following is the statement:

Number of men, women and juveniles on the Live Register at each of the Dublin city employment exchanges on the 18th November, 1966, distinguishing claimants to Unemployment Benefit, applicants for Unemployment Assistance and others.

(a) under 18 years.
