To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many open railway level crossings, for which appropriate orders have been laid, have been converted to half-barrier crossings.

I am advised by the management of Northern Ireland Railways that, the orders to convert them from open crossings having come into effect, six automatic half-barrier crossings have been commissioned. Details are set out in the table:

CrossingDate commissioned
Slaght2 September 1991

Cromore20 December 1991
CrossingDate commissioned
Broughdone13 January 1992
Glarryford20 January 1992

Note: In each case the barrier was commissioned on the same day as the order came into effect.
