The Live Register series gives a monthly breakdown of the number of people claiming Jobseeker's Benefit, Jobseeker's Allowance and other registrants as registered with the Department of Social and Family Affairs. Figures are published for each county and each social welfare office. The most recent information is for December 2008. The following table contains the number of persons signing on in each social welfare office in County Mayo on the last Friday in December in each year from 2004-2008.
