I propose to take Questions Nos. 163 and 164 together.
The Live Register series gives a monthly breakdown of the number of people claiming Jobseekers Benefit, Jobseekers Allowance and other registrants as registered with the Department of Social and Family Affairs. Figures are published for each county and local social welfare office.
The following table contains monthly Live Register information for those aged under 25 and total persons in each local social welfare office in Counties Laois, Limerick and Wexford, from January to December 2009 inclusive. The December 2009 figures are the latest data available and were published on 12th January 2010. The January 2010 county and local office data are due to be published on 5th February 2010.
It should be noted that the Live Register is not a definitive measure of unemployment as it includes part-time workers, and seasonal and casual workers entitled to Jobseekers Benefit or Allowance.
