Department of Census and Statistics October 2007 Foreword

The Department of Census and Statistics (DCS), carried out a special enumeration in

Eastern province and in Jaffna district in Northern province. The objective of this

enumeration is to provide the necessary basic information needed to formulate

obtained from the District based on summaries prepared by enumerators and supervisors. A

final detailed information will be disseminated after the computer processing of

questionnaires.

This preliminary release gives some basic information for Ampara district, such as

population by divisional secretary's division, urban/rural population, sex, age (under 18

years and 18 years and over) and ethnicity. Data on displaced persons due to conflict or

tsunami are also included. Some important information which is useful for regional level

planning purposes are given by Grama Niladhari Divisions, this enumeration is based on the

POPULATION INFORMATION ON AMPARA DISTRICT BASIC SUMMARY RESULTS

1. Introduction

The Census of Population and Housing -2001 was unable to carryout completely in

Northern and Eastern provinces. In order to overcome the lack of data required for ongoing development programmes in Northern and Eastern provinces, Department of Census and

Statistics has carried out a special enumeration in Jaffna district in Northern province and in

Batticaloa, Trincomalee and Ampara districts in Eastern province. Although the DCS was able to do a complete census enumeration in Ampara district in 2001, this special enumeration was carried out in the district to obtain the current information needed for development programmes of the district. This is a complete enumeration covering all the persons who are usual residents of households in the district. Usual residence is defined as the housing unit or collective living quarter at which the person usually lives, i.e. sleeps, keeps his clothes and other belongings etc. It is the residence from which a person generally goes to work or if a student, attends school. This 'de jure' method of enumeration differs from the

'de facto' approach used during the last Censuses in which people were enumerated during a specified period (usually 6 hours) at the place where they are found irrespective of the usual residence. Basic demographic information such as date of birth, sex, marital status, religion, ethnicity, relationship to head of household, number of displaced persons, reason for displacement etc. were collected through a carefully designed schedule. An enumerator for each Grama Niladhari (GN) division and a supervisor for 10 GN divisions were appointed with the help of District administration. The enumerator listed all the building units and collected the information visiting each and every building unit within the area allocated to him/her. Close supervision has been maintained throughout the enumeration by supervisors. The necessary administrative arrangements in the district were carried out by the District Secretary and Divisional Secretaries and all the technical guidance was provided by the staff of the Department of Census and Statistics. Enumeration was carried out during the first three weeks of August 2007. 2. Population Size and Growth

The total population enumerated in the Ampara district is 610,719. This represents

3.0 percent increase since the last Census in 2001. The average annual growth rate during the period of 1981-2007 shows a remarkable decline. The enumerated population, intercensal increase, and average annual growth rates are shown in Table A and Figure A for the district.

Note: Boundaries of some DS divisions are not exact boundaries definition is not comparable with the definition used in 2001/2007 . This happened as a consequence of abolishing town councils which were treated as urban in the 1981 Census and absorbing the administration of such areas into Pradesheeya Sabhas which are considered as rural since 1987. Therefore the urban population figures and percentages should be interpreted cautiously.

Table D shows the population distribution by sectors. Urban and rural percentages are 19.4 and 80.6 respectively.

5. Age-Sex composition

At this preliminary stage, age distribution is available only as dichotomy, i.e. population under 18 years and 18 years and over.

Number and percentage distribution of population by age, under 18 years and 18 years and over by divisional secretariat divisions are shown in Table E. It is seen that 37.5 percent of the population are under 18 years and 62.5 percent are 18 years and over.

Sex composition of a certain population refers to the distribution of people according to sex. A useful measure of sex composition is the sex ratio, which is defined as the number of males per 100 females in the population. Population by sex and sex ratio by

DS divisions are shown in Table F.

Among 20 DS divisions, of the district, the highest sex ratio of 102.9 was recorded for

Sainthamaruthu divisional secretariat followed by 101.4 and 101.1 for Dehiattakandiya and

Irakkamam DS divisions respectively. All other DS divisions show fairly low sex ratios, below

100.

8 Number and percentage distribution of population by ethnicity from 1963 to 2007 is shown in Table G. It is seen that 44.0 percent of the population in Ampara district are Sri

Lanka Moors in 2007. Sinhalese and Sri Lanka Tamil comprises of 37.5 percent and 18.3 percent respectively. (See Figure D). There is a slight increase in the percentage of Sri Lanka

Moor, and a decrease of percentage of Sinhalese in comparison to 2001 Census figures. A major reason for the above changes is the amalgamation of part of Dehiattakandiya DS division in Ampara district to Dimbulagala DS division in Polonnaruwa district, after the

Population Census 2001.
