Speaking about the Residents’ survey, the Chair of Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, Councillor Diana Armstrong, said;

“Fermanagh and Omagh District Council is committed to continuously improving the service it provides to the residents of the district. This is the second such survey to be undertaken by the Council and the outcome will provide the Council and its partners with information on how residents assess their local area, the Council’s performance on a selection of areas and to collect information that will provide key indicators of the wellbeing of residents that are not available elsewhere.

I would encourage residents in the sample to avail of this opportunity to have their say by participating fully in the survey.”
