Neither my Department nor the Central Bank compile detailed information in relation to direct or indirect employment in the trading of bonds, derivatives and shares. The Central Bank regularly publishes statistics on the volumes of trading in this sector, on its website, which may be of interest to the Deputy. The most recent data runs to end-July and was published in mid-September. See link below: http://www.centralbank.ie/polstats/stats/sis/Documents/2012m07_ie_securities_issues_statistics.pdf.
