GIVEN under my Official Seal, this 28th day of April, 1971. JOSEPH BRENNAN, Minister for Social Welfare. EXPLANATORY NOTE. The Unemployment Assistance (Employment Period) (No. 2) Order, 1971, ( S.I. No. 142 of 1971 ) excludes from unemployment assistance during the period from 14 April, 1971 to 16 November, 1971, men who have no dependants and who are resident in non-municipal towns and rural areas with the exception of those resident in houses owned by the local authority of a town having local government. The effect of the present amendment Order is to provide for additional exceptions, viz., men, without dependants, who (
- i)are aged fifty or over or (
- ii)are resident on coastal islands. These two classes of men without dependants will thus no longer be excluded from unemployment assistance during the Employment Period.
