§ Mr. Merlyn ReesThese Questions seek detailed data covering a number of years, which will unavoidably take time and effort to obtain from the security forces. A full answer will be given as soon as possible. Security statistics on a quarterly basis since 1st January 1970, giving data for the whole of Northern Ireland, were placed in the Library. Corresponding figures for the second quarter of 1976 will be available shortly.
