Text

I thank the deputy First Minister for her answer and for agreeing to meet the Westland Community Group. It is an active and energetic group. Indeed, it has another community fun day arranged for this Saturday, which would be an opportunity to visit. The previous community centre was a prefab building and was itself second-hand. Since it fell into disrepair, as the deputy First Minister will be aware, the group has been campaigning day and night for a new purpose-built centre. The only thing that I would say would be to urge the deputy First Minister and First Minister to push their officials and the Urban Villages programme to move the project forward to actualisation in as short a timescale as possible.
