Seán Moore Minister of State at the Department of the Taoiseach (Mr. Moore) Fianna Fáil

With the permission of the Ceann Comhairle I propose to take Questions Nos. 2 and 3 together.

The information requested by the Deputy is not available. With regard to the numbers unemployed there is no local employment office in the town of Kilcock. Total figures for the numbers of persons on the live register residing in different counties and in towns with legally defined boundaries are complied on a quarterly basis, but since the town of Kilcock has no legally defined boundary, information on this basis is not available.

Concerning the question on the number of persons at work in the Kilcock area, such information at this level of geographical detail is available only from a full census of population.
