§ Mrs. Iris RobinsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when a decision will be made on the planning application submitted by Ravenblack in November 2000 for a development in the Gocean area of Killyleagh; and if he will make a statement. [133236]
§ Angela SmithIn August 2003, I met with locally elected representatives and facilitated a further meeting with representatives at their request to discuss this proposal. I agreed that further consideration would be given to some of the issues raised, and further consultation was subsequently carried out with key organisations. Some of these responses are still outstanding. Once received and considered, the application will be processed to determination as expeditiously as possible.
