title: Recent Irish migration:  a note on a neglected data source.
abstract: "This paper uses unpublished tabulations from the British Labour Force Survey of 1977 to provide an independent estimate of net migration to Ireland over the period 1971-79.... The paper also describes the characteristics of Irish emigrants to Britain in the year preceding the survey.  Notwithstanding sustained net immigration since 1971, Ireland still experiences a significant outflow of economically active migrants.  The skill level of such migrants would appear to be somewhat higher than that of their predecessors."  (SUMMARY IN  FRE)
