Sinn Fein has welcomed plans to develop over 120 new homes in north Belfast.
MLA Carál Ní Chuilín said she is delighted that Communities Minister Deirdre Hargey has announced £37 million to build 123 new homes in the Upper New Lodge.
She said: "This will deliver high quality, social and affordable homes for families in North Belfast.
"It will also see the regeneration of the area and run-down buildings being replaced by new, first-class homes.
"Delivering more homes and transforming housing is a commitment for Sinn Féin and I am pleased that Minister Hargey continues to deliver on her promise to build homes where they are needed most.
"I look forward to seeing work beginning on these homes and the first families getting their keys upon completion."
