HC Deb 26 May 1972 vol 837 c530W
Mr. Molyneaux

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many men and women, respectively, were employed in schemes under the Urban and Rural Improvement Campaign in each county of Northern Ireland at the latest convenient date; and how this figure compares with six months ago.

Mr. David Howell

The figures are as follows:

30thSeptember,1971 31stMarch 1972
Belfast County Borough Council 176 252
Londonderry Development Commission 13 110
County Antrim 231 435
County Armagh 217 501
County Down 318 472
County Fermanagh 248 543
County Londonderry 161 360
County Tyrone 271 476
TOTAL 1,635 3,149

The Urban and Rural Improvement Campaign is intended to create jobs for men and the figures, therefore, refer to men only.
