Question:
To ask the Minister of the Environment whether the landscape planting scheme which formed part of Planning Application Z/2008/0489/F was considered in the context of providing suitable replacement planting for the Tree Preservation Order trees which were removed from the site at 135 Shandon Park, Belfast.

Answer:

The landscape planting plan showed 5 semi-mature trees to replace the 4 TPO protected trees that had been removed. These were considered to be suitable replacements and were also considered acceptable as part of the landscape planting plan.
