To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what are the numbers of employees in each public organisation by the Fair Employment Agency's definition of Protestant and Roman Catholics in (a) the Omagh council area and (b) with a postcode BT79 for those companies or organisations on the fair employment register.

Of the 101 public authorities specified in the Fair Employment (Specification of Public Authorities) Order (NI) 1989, only two—Omagh district council and the Western education and library board—have registered addresses in Omagh. The number of employees in the former is 293 and in the latter 3,514.

The only public authorities with registered addresses with a postcode of BT79 are Omagh district council and the Western education and library board.

The Fair Employment Commission is not releasing information on community composition from individual monitoring returns at present.
