Statement by TUV Deputy Mayor, Cllr Timothy Gaston:
“I have been fighting the case to finally resolve the application for a UDR Memorial to be incorporated in the Memorial Garden on the Galgorm Road.
“The UDR Association had been messed about by Ballymena Borough Council by them continually putting off making a decision and now the new Mid and East Antrim Borough Council will have to make the decision.
“I will be using my place on the Equality Working Group to make sure this application is progressed as quickly as possible to find a favourable outcome.”
