700 shared houses in Claudy will helpbuild united society
Housing Minister Nelson McCausland said a range of schemes have gone ahead in the North West. Although they pre-date OFMDFM’s ‘Building a United Community’ document, he says they will help deliver its goals.
Under DSD’s ‘Shared Neighbourhood Programme 2008-2011’ 800 NIHE shared housing units were developed in Sion Mills and 700 units were developed in Claudy.
