The focus of this month’s E-zine is the 11 new Districts – Local Government District (2014).
The reform of Local Government will see the reduction of 26 current Districts (LGD) to 11 new Districts (LGD2014).
The 11 new Districts become operational in April 2015: the new Districts will, however, operate in shadow mode after the elections in 2014.
See NIDirect for further information, or view a
guidance paper on NISRA.
On 30 January 2014, Census 2011 Key Statistics tables for the new 11 districts (LGD2014)
in Northern Ireland and a Quick Statistics table on Population Density were released.
Also released for the new 11 Districts; vital statistics data including Births,
Deaths,
Marriages,
Divorces and
Civil Partnerships.

NINIS have already been and will continue to request data at the new LGD2014 from all data providers.
