The 2011 censuses indicate that the proportion of Greek and Turkish Cypriots in Cyprus was 83 per cent and 17 per cent respectively. The proportion of Greek and Turkish Cypriots employed in the Sovereign Base Areas in 2017, is approximately 0.12 per cent and 0.08 per cent of the Greek and Turkish Cypriot populations as identified in the 2011 censuses.<\/p>
<\/p>
The proportion of Greek and Turkish Cypriot nationals employed by the Sovereign Base Area Administration (SBAA) and British Forces Cyprus in the Sovereign Base Areas (SBAs) are 88 per cent and 12 per cent respectively. The SBAA has reviewed the balance of its employment and concluded that it is compliant with Annex B, Part II, Section 7, Para 2 under the 1960 Treaty of Establishment. Our compliance will continue to be kept under review.<\/p>
<\/p>
Details of the Cypriot contractors employed in the SBAs are held by private contractors, who have no obligation to provide us with this information. Contractors work for a variety of employers across the island and there is no certainty of when their staff are working in the SBAs as opposed to under other contractual obligations they have elsewhere on the island. For private contractors, therefore, the information is not held in the format requested.<\/p>

I regret that the answer provided on 24 November 2017 to Question number HL3241 contained two typographical errors. The number of Greek Cypriots employed in the Eastern Sovereign Base Area (ESBA) at Grades 7-8 in 2017 should have been 65 instead of 165. Therefore, no increase in the number of Greek Cypriots in these grades took place between 2016 and 2017 in the ESBA. The number of Greek Cypriots employed in the Western Sovereign Base Area (WSBA) at Grades 5-6 in 2015 should have been 70 instead of 30. Therefore, the number of Greek Cypriots at Grades 5-6 decreased slightly between 2015 and 2017 in the WSBA. The correct figures are provided below.<\/p>
