Question:
To ask the Minister for Communities to detail any considerations she has given to progressing and supporting a proposed skate park in Portrush.

Answer:

My Department has been working closely with Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council over the last 18 months to develop plans to regenerate the Recreation Grounds at Ramore Avenue, Portrush. The regeneration scheme will include an urban plaza that will act as a public space that can also accommodate skateboarding and other urban sports. It has been designed with specialist input from the Freestyle Collective and consultation with CAUS (Causeway Association of Urban Sports).
