Text

Thank you, Minister. I would appreciate that. Following on from what you said about the needs-based approach, Newry, Mourne and Down District Council in my constituency of South Down has the largest number of road surface defects of all local government districts and the worst ratio of defects to road length. Both have worsened in the past year. Can the Minister reassure my constituents that they will see noticeable improvements under her Department's new road maintenance strategy?
