asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when he will make a decision on the recommendations of the Northern Ireland Housing Executive for the demolition of the Divis flats; and if he will make a statement.

On 13 October I announced that I had accepted the recommendation of the Northern Ireland Housing Executive that its future strategy for dealing with the problems of Divis flats should be one of phased demolition of the remaining Sectra blocks subject to periodic review.
