Mr. Pádraig Dalton:

We will certainly go back and look at it. Committee members can see from the series on employment and unemployment that there is a clear trend. It has been evident not only for four months but for close to three years. We have seen the gradual decline in the quarterly national household survey and in the monthly unemployment figures as well. Anyway, I take Deputy Doherty's point about the tax figures. Obviously, everyone is looking at those published yesterday. We will look at that and see whether there is anything we can do to explain this mismatch.
