Question 160: To ask the Taoiseach the number of households here in 2004, 2005 and to date in 2006 and a forecast for 2007; and the population figures for the same period and forecast. [36375/06]

The information requested by the Deputy is contained in the table.
Population and Households in Mid-April for selected years | ||
Reference period | Number of households (thousands) | Number of Persons (thousands) |
April 2004 | 1405.9 | 4043.8 |
April 2005 | 1453.9 | 4130.7 |
April 2006 | 1488.4 | 4234.9 |
The official population projections for the period since 2002 have been exceeded because the net inward migration flows in recent years have been higher than those assumed for the Census 2002-based population projections exercise. While no official forecast for 2007 exists, the recent experience would suggest a continuing annual increase of around 2 per cent in population and a slightly higher increase in the number of households.
