There's been a small rise in Clare's live register figures in November.
However, while the overall county total is on the up, the unemployment indicator is continuing to show an improvement in Ennis.
7395 people are now signing on the live register in Clare.
This represents a rise of 63 in November but a fall of over 800 on the same time last year.
The trends in Ennis continue to be positive, meanwhile.
There are now 4,003 people signing on in and around the county town, where the live register fell for the fifth straight month.
It's a similar story in East Clare, where a drop of 19 was recorded, but the rise has come elsewhere in the county.
In West Clare, 44 people joined the dole queues last month and a rise of 77 was recorded in the North of the county.
