Lord Laird

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the Written Answer by the Lord Privy Seal on 18 March ( WA 26), what factors have been identified as responsible for the unemployment differentials between different denominations within the Protestant community in Northern Ireland. [HL2974]

Lord Williams of Mostyn
