Text

The efforts of volunteers across the board, including St John Ambulance, played a role, as did the statutory agencies, such as the PSNI. The way in which they all worked together showed that we can host an event of that scale and can do it well because of what we have here. The capacity of the volunteers was second to none, and I met many of them when I was walking around the streets. I concur with the Member and put it on record that we are so grateful for their support; it would not have happened without them. They told me that they enjoyed it. Again, it was the best of us.
