Report on the Cost of Living in Ireland, June 1922

About the author
Ireland's Ministry of Economic Affairs is not a person but a historical government body credited as the author of Report on the Cost of Living in Ireland, June 1922. Contemporary records for that report say a committee was appointed on 10 June 1922 by the Provisional Government, with representatives from the Ministries of Agriculture, Finance, Economic Affairs, and Labour.
That makes this "author" best understood as an institutional one: a department contributing official economic analysis rather than a single writer with a personal life story. The surviving work linked to the ministry offers a snapshot of living costs in Ireland during a period of major political and economic change.
Because the credited author is a ministry rather than an individual, a conventional author portrait does not really apply here.
