Ní Chuilín comments after north Belfast power shortage

Sinn Féin MLA for north Belfast Carál Ní Chuilín has commended community workers and NIE Staff after a major power shortage affected homes across the constituency.

“As a result of this evening’s power cut at one stage almost 1300 homes were left without power. Given the adverse weather this is obviously a cause of great concern particularly for families and elderly people,” said Ní Chuilín.

“I want to commend and thank the efforts put in by NIE workers to restore power to the effected homes and pay tribute to north Belfast community worker Malachy Mulgrew for taking to the streets to assist the effected residents.”
