HC Deb 25 March 2004 vol 419 cc956-7W
Mr. Dodds

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, if he will publish the results of(a) surveys and (b) measurements of demand for the Ulster-Scots language in Northern Ireland. [159542]

Angela Smith

The results of the 1999 Northern Ireland Life Times Survey are currently published on the internet (www.ark.ac.uk/nilt).

My officials are currently finalising and preparing for publication the Dunne report, which includes research dating back to 2002. The published report will include the results of the 2000 and 2001 Omnibus Survey. I envisage that the report will be published before the summer.
