The number of redundancies recorded by the Department for 2005 was 23,156, a reduction of 7.5% over the figure of 25,041 for redundancies in 2004. This downward trend is an indication of the continuing healthy state of the Irish economy. This comes on top of a 2.8% reduction in redundancies in 2004 from the 2003 figure of 25,769.
