These matters are the responsibility of district councils in Northern Ireland.

There are no municipal authorities of Lurgan, Portadown, Dunmurry, Enniskillen, Holywood, Newcastle, and Port Stewart. The first two towns fall within the district council area of Craigavon and the remainder within the areas of Lisburn, Fermanagh, North Down, Down and Coleraine respectively.
