Abstract: Let $X$ be a Hausdorff topological space and $CL(X)$ the hyperspace of all closed nonempty subsets of $X$. We show that the Fell topology on $CL(X)$ is normal if and only if the space $X$ is Lindelöf and locally compact. For the Fell topology normality, paracompactness and Lindelöfness are equivalent.
