Mr. John D. Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when work commenced at the new amenity site at Moss road, Millisle; which agency is the promoter of this scheme; how many objectors there were to this scheme; when the scheme was given planning permission; and if he will make a statement. [2439]

Mr. Moss

Responsibility for the subject in question has been delegated to the Planning Service under its chief executive, Mr. T. W. Stewart. I have asked him to arrange for a reply to be given.

Letter from T. W. Stewart to Mr. John D. Taylor, dated 6 November 1996: Mr. Moss has asked me to reply to your question about the new amenity site at Moss Road, Millisle. Outline planning permission for a proposed civic amenity site on land between 2 and 32 Moss Road, was granted to Ards Borough Council on 28 September 1995. Four letters of objection were received in response to public advertisement and neighbour notification. Planning consent to an application for reserved matters was granted on 5 August 1996. The start date for work is a matter for Ards Borough Council as promoter of the scheme.
