HC Deb 14 July 1986 vol 101 c367W
Sir John Biggs-Davison

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will make a statement about the future of the Divis flats in Belfast.

Mr. Needham

The future of the Divis flats complex is, in the first instance, a matter for the Northern Ireland Housing Executive and is one of a number of housing management issues which the Executive keeps under constant review. The present strategy includes the demolition of Pound block (to begin shortly) and St. Brendans block (to begin around the turn of the year). There are no plans for further demolition.
