‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Emigration Figures. Ethnic origin in UK census
Summary
A Deputy urged the Government to seek an ethnic-origin question in the 1991 UK census; the Minister said it was a separate question.
In view of the seemingly total lack of accuracy, and the uncertainty about emigration, would the Minister ask the Government to consider making representations to the United Kingdom Government to have included in the 1991 census sheet, a question in relation to ethnic origin? This could be very important.
