Dr. David Clark

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will give the numbers of(a) farmers and (b) farm workers employed in each county in Northern Ireland in June 1981 and June 1991.

Mr. Hanley

The information requested is given in the table. The figures are from the June agricultural censuses for 1981 and 1991 and exclude minor holdings not covered by the census:

Dr. Mawhinney

We are seeking the return of Angelo Fusco to Northern Ireland, from the Republic of Ireland, to serve a life sentence for murder, two life sentences for attempted murder and two determinate sentences for possession of firearms with intent.

We do not comment on Irish judicial decisions; but I can confirm that we have expressed concern to the Irish Government about the implications of bail in the case.
