Research shows high number of people on State supports, or saving money

While the standard measure of monthly unemployment was 5.8 per cent in January, the Covid-19 Adjusted Measure of Unemployment indicates a rate as high as 25 per cent if all claimants of the Pandemic Unemployment Payment were classified as unemployed.

The research also says that 30 per cent of people reported in November 2020 that spending more quality time with the people they live with was an aspect of their lives that has changed for the better.There were 29,000 fewer new cars sold last year when compared to 2019, although the combined number of new electric and hybrid cars licensed in 2020 was 15.7 per cent greater than in 2019 – a jump of 2,251 more cars.

For some sectors the story is very different, and sales in bars fell by 62 per cent while the sales of books, newspapers and stationery declined by 11 per cent with sales in department stores falling by 4.5 per cent.
