JULY'S monthly meeting of Belfast City Council began on a sombre note as parties from across the Chamber offered their condolences to former Sinn Féin councillor Stephen Magennis on the recent passing of his wife, Patricia.
GREEN Party councillor Mal O'Hara was first elected to Belfast City Council in 2019 and is also Deputy Leader of the party. Mal is also the party's Assembly candidate for May 5 in his home constituency of North Belfast and is hoping to be the first Green MLA elected in the area.
