Abstract
The Department of Health carried out a complete census of the resident patient population of local authority and private psychiatric hospitals in the Republic of Ireland on 31 March, 1963. This paper analyses the Irish census returns and compares them with those of the similar psychiatric hospital census carried out in England and Wales on 31 December, 1963 (Brooke, 1967).Keywords
