My Department does not have specific data available to provide the information the Deputy requests. Developing such statistics to a reasonable degree of accuracy would require a significant effort to collate the relevant data, much of which is not readily available. Accordingly, and given other service priorities, it is not possible to provide accurate information within the deadline for a Parliamentary Question.

I would suggest to the Deputy that the annual "Statistical Information on Social Welfare Services" report, prepared by my Department, provides significant and detailed information relating to social insurance statistical data. These reports are available on gov.ie.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
