Text

I thank the deputy First Minister for her answer. It is 14 months since I asked her an almost identical question, seeking to improve the North's lamentable record when it comes to the delivery of capital projects. However, what I have heard is that there has been little in the way of progress in those 14 months. Is that accurate, and is it acceptable? Is it typical of the Executive that even an initiative to speed up delivery and make it more efficient has been the victim of delay and more delay?
