Northern Ireland

Important note: Since the establishment of the Northern Ireland Assembly; the NI government websites have seemingly been in a turmoil. A lot of data which was previously available seems to have vanished, or been well hidden. Further political developments might mean more changes. So some of the governmental links below might not work, and we can't always find any alternatives. Sorry.
