asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland (1) how many people have been killed in County Armagh during the present troubles up to 31st January 1976 categorised as (1) RUC, (2) RUCR, (3) UDR, (4) Regular Army, (5) civilians, and (6) terrorists, respectively;(2) how many of the civilians killed in County Armagh since the start of the present troubles have been Protestants; and how many Roman Catholics.
Statistics are not maintained on a county basis and could not be provided without disproportionate effort.The number of persons killed as a result of the security situation in the
period 5th October 1968 to 31st January 1976 in the police divisions covering County Armagh and part of the Counties Down and Tyrone is as follows:
| RUC | 17 |
| RUC Reserve) | 3 |
| Regular Army | 64 |
| UDR | 16 |
| Civilians | 168 |
Membership of a terrorist organisation cannot always be established. It would not be in the interests of security to provide a breakdown of the deaths on a sectarian basis.
