Text
I will refer that to the First Minister and deputy First Minister for a response. The land that you referred to in your question is in private ownership, and that has been a significant factor. We understand that, to mitigate the risk of asbestos-fibre release from the pile and protect members of the public, NIEA undertook a number of safety measures at the site. It is anticipated that the NIEA will shortly establish a multi-agency group to consider the asbestos issues at the Donegall Road site. In response to the question, I will refer your request to the First Minister and deputy First Minister.
