By Stacy M. Brown NNPA Newswire Senior National Correspondent @StacyBrownMedia On the eve of World AIDS Day, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention put out a call for urgency and a collective commitment to ending the HIV pandemic in America. Agency officials said while there has been recent progress in HIV prevention, the
Warrenpoint Harbour Authority has been allocated £1.5m by Nichola Mallon, Northern Ireland s Minister for Infrastructure.
The funding will allow the Co.Down authority to take forward a programme of port infrastructure works.
Minister Mallon said: “The Harbour Authority has identified a range of infrastructure works required at the port as a result of the challenges arising from the Covid-19 pandemic.
This funding will therefore provide vital support following a difficult year for the port, and will enable it to work towards economic recovery as we emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic.
I am pleased to be able to support Warrenpoint Harbour Authority with this bid and to provide support as the port adapts to the requirements of future business needs.”
