North Belfast Sinn Féin MLA Carál Ní Chuilín has given the announcement by the North’s Department for Social Development that work on 200 social houses on Girdwood would start immediately a warm welcome.
"This has to be welcomed. Margaret Ritchie has taken the executive decision to do this in spite of opposition from unionists,” said Ní Chuilín.
"The main problem was the DUP and the fact they didn't want any homes for Catholics on the site. We have campaigned about this issue for years and we're hopeful that this will help lower the housing waiting list in North Belfast with these new family homes that the area badly needs."
