Text

There is real frustration about the length of time that this has taken: it has been ongoing for a while. I gave evidence to the panel at least a year ago, or maybe longer. People who live in houses in Lisburn Square and the Magheralave area of Lisburn are being held to ransom by property management companies. What advice should we pass on to them, given that they are effectively powerless in their own homes? Is there any way that we could see change more quickly?
