Improvement plans for Laharna tower block
The plans relate to a maintenance and investment strategy for the Housing Executive’s 32 multi-storey tower blocks across Northern Ireland.
During a meeting with the Housing Executive chairman, Donald Hoodless, the minister spoke of the need to progress improvement work to tower blocks and outlined how a strategic approach is now required to deal with the maintenance problems.

It is therefore now imperative that the Housing Executive reviews and identifies the necessary work required and develops a focussed maintenance strategy for the 32 tower blocks right across Northern Ireland.”
