Text

The progress stands on its own right when it comes to what has been achieved. Then, you just have to look about for how much more you can do to build on that. It is a good news success story. It ticks the box on regional balance and ensures that the north-west gets its fair share of investment. I commend all those involved. It has been a real effort by the public sector and private sector to achieve the investment. The effort is creating such strong conditions for long-term growth and prosperity. We have the city deal, the Inclusive Future Fund and all the different projects, including those that support the City of Derry Airport. Hopefully, we will get a way through on the A5 in the upcoming court case, and we have the completed A6 improvements and the Magee expansion. The investment in the north-west has been substantial over the past number of years, and I look forward to building on that in the time ahead.
