PRESENTATION BY FIRMAS GAS: The Chair welcomed Mr Mark Prentice, General Manager, Mr Neil Holland, Sales & Marketing Manager and Mr Kevin McSherry, Engineering Manager Firmus Gas to the meeting. Mr Prentice informed members that over 1400 customers had already been connected to live gas in the North West and that they benefited from lower fuel costs through fixed price contracts. He said Firmus were extending the existing 2 year capped tariff price for domestic customers for another 12 months and that a 10% reduction would be extended to top tier commercial customers, which equated to a 6% reduction in annual gas bills capped until January 2009. He added there were also proven environmental benefits from using gas through reduced carbon emissions. Mr Prentice thanked Council for converting to gas at the Roe Valley Leisure Centre and in Council offices and said the service was expected to be connected in 4 to 6 weeks time. Firmus representatives answered a number of queries in relation to gas to rural areas and to health & safety around the service.

  • Fair Head Tidal Information Day
    Welcome to Fair Head Tidal Information Day Fair Head Tidal (FHT) was awarded an Agreement for Lease from The Crown Estate in 2012 which grants it exclusive rights to carry out surveys on the site and, subject to securing the necessary consents, apply for a long term lease to use the site for the construction and operation of a tidal array with an installed capacity of up to 100MW. This exhibition outlines some of the survey work we have been doing on the site, an assessment of the findings and information on what we would be seeking to build. The next step is a formal planning application to the Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs to seek consent to build and operate the project. We welcome your feedback on this exhibition and our plans. Who we are Fair Head Tidal Project is a joint venture between two independent offshore renewable energy specialists, DP Marine Energy (DPME) and Bluepower NV. DPME is one of a group of companies headquartered in Cork operating under the DP Energy name. DP Energy View north across Murlough Bay towards Fair Head is a renewable energy and sustainable development specialist business which has been pioneering renewable energy projects for over 20 years, operating in sites across the world. In addition to its tidal interests it also has projects in wind, solar and energy storage. Bluepower NV is a company established by DEME Blue Energy and Nuhma, both Belgian companies. DEME is a marine construction group with roots going back 150 years. DEME has gained direct tidal installation experience as part of the installation team for the SeaGen device, the first commercial scale tidal turbine at Strangford Lough in Northern Ireland.

  • Response to Police Ombudsman's Findings Into Castlerock and Greysteel Atrosities
    SDLP RESPONSE TO POLICE OMBUDSMAN'S FINDINGS INTO CASTLEROCK AND GREYSTEEL ATROSITIES Back to Latest News The report does put on record my efforts as a public representative to bring to justice the UFF killer gang before they carried out the second shooting atrocity at Greysteel. Latest News ‘Obviously I would want to put on record that my contact with all three officers was a lot more frequent and detailed than their memories serve them. Also missing is any detail of what steps were taken to catch the Events killers earlier although I do accept that their ‘den’ was searched on many occasions but to suggest that it was because it was a ‘drinking den’ is far off the mark. Key Speeches ‘The police do accept that they interviewed a lorry driver who was seen near Castlerock on the day previous to the first shooting. This is the same person who named to me the driver of the van who was Photo Gallery Torrens Knight. I accept that at the time of the police interview the driver did not name Knight. However my information was passed to the police in May 1993, five months before Greysteel. ‘Although the police may not have had the evidence to arrest the killers after Castlerock they certainly had their suspicions and this was understood in any conversations I had with any of the three officers. ‘The officers do accept that they set up checkpoints on both bridges into Coleraine in the period between the two killings and I welcomed this. It is now a matter of history that plans were changed from carrying out a second atrocity in North Antrim and the killer gang switched to Greysteel after the massacre at the chip shop on the Shankhill Road.
