Terrorism
Mr. Nigel Evans : To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many terrorist attacks have been carried out in Northern Ireland in each year since 1969 ; and what percentage of these attacks were carried out by the Republican paramilitaries and Loyalist paramilitaries.
Sir John Wheeler [holding answer 13 July 1993] : The available information on the number of terrorist attacks is published in the chief constable of the Royal Ulster Constabulary's annual report 1992, a copy of which is in the Library. This gives details of the number of terrorist incidents involving shootings, bombs and incendiaries. Information on how many of these were attributed to Republican and Loyalist terrorist groups is not available.
Mr. John D. Taylor : To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what is the total cost of the film for television screening which is part of the new campaign against terrorism ; how long the film lasts ; how many firms were invited to tender for the preparations of this film ; and what is the budget allocated for the television screening of this film.
Sir John Wheeler [holding answer 19 July 1993] : The total production cost of the three television commercial films launched on Wednesday 7 July was £438,000. The three films last 150, 80 and 40 seconds respectively. Seven advertising agencies were invited to submit proposals for this advertising campaign. The projected expenditure for screening the films in the 1993-94 financial year is £280,000.

Council Tax
Mr. Simon Hughes : To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what figures are available for the impact of the introduction of the council tax on pensioners, in particular in London.
Mr. Baldry : It is estimated that, after allowing for council tax benefit, about 65 per cent. of pensioner households are better off under the council tax in 1993-94 than they were under the community charge in 1992-93. The corresponding figure for London is 50 per cent. Figures for the other regions are shown in the table.
