    It’s good to see the CSO involved in this type of event.

    I would certainly attend if I was in Dublin.

    As we know, the foreign-owned sector has a big impact on the balance of payments and that impact is generally opaque.

    Less than 1,000 work in a small number of leasing companies that own over 3,000 commercial aircraft in service across the world.

    How reliable is company suppled CSO data - - CSO forms arriving in companies do not elicit the same attention in companies that tax forms get.

    Yesterday’s volatile monthly industrial production data shows that estimates of work-in-progress at chemical companies are not reliable.
