Text

I thank the First Minister for her answer. She is aware that, earlier this year, Belfast City Council passed a motion, with the votes of Sinn Féin councillors among others, that expressed objection to the use of Belfast International Airport by US warplanes. At least 60 of them have gone through Aldergrove this year. Will she give an update on conversations with Belfast City Council on that matter and any action that she has taken as First Minister to express, I presume, her opposition to that fact?
