A Hundred and Fifty Years of Vital Statistics: Documenting Demographic Change in Ireland
Fitzgerald, John
In December 2015 the CSO published the 150th annual Vital Statistics volume (for 2013) – a publication which has played a central role in documenting demographic change in Ireland since the first edition for 1864. This paper uses these data, together with other data, especially the data from the Census, to examine how Irish demography has evolved over the last century and a half.

Earnings and Low Pay in the Republic of Ireland
Collins, Micheál L.
As signs of economic recovery continue to emerge, issues relating to quality of life, living standards, the provision of public services and adequacy of income are returning to the policy sphere. Included among these are issues related to earnings and pay levels. This paper examines low pay both in the context of the distribution of earnings within the income distribution and the distribution of hourly earnings across all employees. While the analysis in the paper focuses on the latter, the paper grounds that assessment within the context of earnings among all workers, both employees and the self-employed. Overall the paper aims to provide greater clarity on the overall shape of earnings across the state and in particular to establish a more robust evidence base for our understanding of the nature and shape of low pay. The analysis implies some implications for policy and these are also explored.
