Answer
The Member will be aware that the upgrade of the A2 in East Antrim was the subject of an Adjournment Debate held in the Assembly Chamber on 31 May 2011, when I made a statement outlining my Department’s position on the scheme. A Hansard record of the Adjournment Debate is available to view on the Northern Ireland Assembly website.
The Member will also be aware that I met a delegation from the Council, which included him, on 17 August 2011, to discuss this scheme.
As the position regarding the Scheme has not changed in the interim, I feel that a further meeting would not be beneficial at this stage, but I will keep the situation under review.
