Request

Request 1
My question concerns 50/50 recruitment. What does 50% protestant mean? Who is covered by that?


Request 2
What does 50% catholic mean? Who is covered by that?


Request 3
With this in mind, how does the PSNI access the religion of police officers as they are, protestant, catholic, islam, hinduism, Jew, Amish, hare Krishna, Salvation Army, scientology, atheist and on and on it goes?


Request 4
So, 50 / 50 is NOT a true reflection, as all people DO NOT fall into two groups as there are so many religions in Northern Ireland and the world, what is the true breakdown of the religious faiths and non-faiths of the PSNI in Northern Ireland.
