1951 Census Preliminary Report GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND I95I PRELIMINARY REPORT Printed and presented pursuant to 14 * IS Geo. 6., Chap. 6. BELFAST : HIS MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1951 PRICE Is. 6d. NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 PRELIMINARY REPORT Printed and presented pursuant to 14 S- 15 Geo. 6., Chap. 6. BELFAST : HIS MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1951 PREFACE In accordance with the provisions of the Census Act (Northern Ireland), 1951, a Census of the population was taken on 8th April, 1951. This was the third since the establishment of the Government of Northern Ireland, two earlier Censuses having been carried out in 1926 and 1937. It was intended to take a Census in 1941, but this was found impracticable owing to war conditions. It is forty years since, in 1911, Censuses were carried out simultaneously in all parts of the British Isles. This statistical achievement has been repeated on the present occasion, and the results should prove of very great interest. Further, the Northern Ireland Census of 1951 was a much fuller one, as regards the number of questions asked, than that of 1937—for instance, each person was required to state his or her occupation for the first time since the Census of 1926. No question, however, was asked which had not been included either in 1926 or 1937. As on previous occasions, the Census was. taken on a de facto and uot Side jure basis, i.e., it included all persons, regardless of nationality or usual place of residence, who spent the night of 8th April in Northern Ireland. It excluded all Northern Ireland residents who spent that night elsewhere. For this reason it is usual to select a date which does not fall within any period when tourist and holiday traffic is heavy. Northern Ireland is fortunate in having at its service a very homogeneous and efficient body of enumerators, namely the Royal Ulster Constabulary. In spite of the inclemency of the weather and the fact that the average number of persons dealt with by each enumerator was 1,292 (as against 887 in England and 524 in Scotland), the onerous duties falling on the police were carried out with the utmost smoothness and in anextremely creditable manner. The country was divided into 33 Census Districts (over which the District Inspector^ of the R.U.C. acted as superintendents) and ihto 1,061 enumeration areas. The returns were distributed in the week preceding the Census date to all persons required by the Act to complete them, e.g., heads of households, persons in charge of hospitals, nursing homes and boarding schools, goyerriors of prisons, masters of ships and the Commanding Officers of Army and R. A.F. EstabUshments. (Special arrangements were made with the Admiralty in connec­ tion with Naval vessels.) The collection of the completed Returns took place between 9th and 21st April, during which period the enumerators were required to examine them and to institute the necessary enquiries to enable errors to be corrected and omissions made good. Another duty faUing on the enumerators was the compilation of Enumeration Books for each sub-division of each District and the building up of total populations by Counties and County Boroughs. These populations formed the basis for the announcement made by the Minister of Finance in Parliament on 23rd May ; and the information (except that relating to rehgion) contained in this Report is derived from the Enumeration Books only. The figures should, therefore, be regarded as provisional, and subject to revision during the machine tabulation stage : but past experieiice has shown that only very small amendments are Hkely to be need^. This preliminary Report will be followed as soon as possible by detailed volumes relating to each County, together with one for Belfast County Borough. These will contain a large number of statistical tables based upon the various questions asked in the Census Returns, and the series will be concluded by a general Report covering the whole country. The success of the undertaking was in no small measure due to the valuable help given by the Press and the B.B.C., which spared no efforts to keep the public fully informed and to deal in advance with points on which misunderstandings were likely to arise. To this must be added the very welcome assistance given by the Clergy, School Teachers, Pubhc Libraries, Chambers of Commerce, Young Farmers' Clubs, Cinema proprietors and heads of large businesses by displaying posters and by distributing and discussing a booklet (entitled " The Coming Census ") issued by this Office. Grateful acknowledgment is also made of the valuable co-operation of the General Register Office, London, H.M. Stationery Office, the Defence Departments, H.M. Customs and Excise, the Post Office, the Ulster Transport Authority and the officers of the various Local Authorities. A special tribute is due to the staffs of certain large Hospitals and other Institutions who took great pains to ensure that the questions relating to all inmates were fully and correctly answered, thus greatly lightening the task of the enumerators. Finally, the commonsense and goodwill of the Northern Ireland public were evidenced by the fact that no case of refusal to supply information has been reported from any district. W. A.

  • A Comparative Study of Extremism Within Nationalist Movements
    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF EXTREMISM WITHIN NATIONALIST MOVEMENTS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM AND SPAIN by Ashton Croft Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Departmental Honors in the Department of History Texas Christian University Fort Worth, Texas 22 April 2019 Croft 1 A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF EXTREMISM WITHIN NATIONALIST MOVEMENTS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM AND SPAIN Project Approved: Supervising Professor: William Meier, Ph.D. Department of History Jodi Campbell, Ph.D. Department of History Eric Cox, Ph.D. Department of Political Science Croft 2 ABSTRACT Nationalism in nations without statehood is common throughout history, although what nationalism leads to differs. In the cases of the United Kingdom and Spain, these effects ranged in various forms from extremism to cultural movements. In this paper, I will examine the effects of extremists within the nationalism movement and their overall effects on societies and the imagined communities within the respective states. I will also compare the actions of extremist factions, such as the Irish Republican Army (IRA), the Basque Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA), and the Scottish National Liberation Army (SNLA), and examine what strategies worked for the various nationalist movements at what points, as well as how the movements connected their motives and actions to historical memory. Many of the groups appealed to a wider “imagined community” based on constructing a shared history of nationhood. For example, violence was most effective when it directly targeted oppressors, but it did not work when civilians were harmed. Additionally, organizations that tied rhetoric and acts back to actual histories of oppression or of autonomy tended to garner more widespread support than others.

    Agenda Item No: 6 Committee: Cabinet Date: 20th February 2020 Report Title: Parish Street Lighting 1. Purpose / Summary To consider and agree future funding arrangements for Parish Council street lighting 2. Key issues • Footway lighting in the twelve Parish Council areas are owned by the individual Parish Council • Six of the Twelve Parish Councils have entered into a service level agreement with FDC for the repair, management, maintenance and provision of energy for their street lighting assets. • Six of the Parish Councils manage their own street lighting assets and have made, or are in the process of making alternative maintenance and energy arrangements • Currently the Parish Councils fund energy, repairs, maintenance and replacement costs for their own street lights either by FDC contract recharges for those who have entered in to an SLA, or through their own energy and maintenance arrangements. • FDC no longer procures street light energy from the County Council and have entered into a new meter point access number agreement with UKPN. The agreement covers lighting assets owned by the District, Clarion Housing Association and the Six Parish Councils who entered into an FDC SLA in September 2018. • An offer to join the FDC contracts remains for the Six Parish Councils who have left the FDC arrangements subject to various external factors being satisfied. This includes potential renegotiation with the existing contractor, the contract renewal dates and review of the current specifications of the lighting stock which will incur costs. It should be noted that Parish Councils would be able to join both the repairs and maintenance and energy contracts but it is not possible to join the energy scheme only if the Parish Council maintains its own stock.

The Project title; ‘Terrorism knows NO Borders’ aptly illustrates the broader point that we are seeking to make through our involvement in this work, namely that in the context of Northern Ireland terrorism and criminal violence was not curtailed to Northern Ireland alone but rather that individuals, families and communities experienced its’ impacts across the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland and beyond these islands. This Memorial Quilt Project does not claim to represent the totality of lives lost across Great Britain and The Republic of Ireland but rather seeks to provide some understanding of the sacrifices paid by communities, families and individuals who have been victimised by ‘Republican’ or ‘Loyalist’ terrorism. SEFF’s ethos means that we are not purely concerned with victims/survivors who live within south Fermanagh or indeed the broader County.

  • 1951 Census Down County Report
    GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch, 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PRICE 7* 6d NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch. 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PREFACE Three censuses of population have been taken since the Government of Northern Irel&nd was established. The first enumeration took place in 1926 and incorporated questions relating to occupation and industry, orphanhood and infirmities. The second enumeration made in 1937 was of more limited scope and was intended to bridge the gap between the census of 1926 and the census which it was proposed to take in 1941, but which had to be abandoned owing to the outbreak of war. The census taken as at mid-night of 8th-9th April, 1951, forms the basis of this report and like that in 1926 questions were asked as to the occupations and industries of the population. The length of time required to process the data collected at an enumeration before it can be presented in the ultimate reports is necessarily considerable. In order to meet immediate requirements, however, two Preliminary Reports on the 1951 census were published. The first of these gave the population figures by administrative areas and towns and villages, and by Counties and County Boroughs according to religious pro­ fession. The Second Report, which was restricted to Counties and County Boroughs, gave the population by age groups.
