Postal strike and grant applications

Summary

Creed said there was no postal strike in the first three months of 1979; Barrett maintained that the strike began in February and reduced applications.

Is the Minister aware that the postal strike did not interfere with the applications for the £1,000 grant because we did not have a postal strike in the first three months of 1979?

Comment on this

The postal strike started in February. That is the reason why the number has dropped. It applies more to the country than to the Dublin area.
