The Northern Ireland Executive has pledged to go-ahead with the redevelopment of Casement Park in Belfast after a meeting with Ulser GAA.
Sinn Féin MP Paul Maskey confirmed Ministers Michelle O'Neill, Conor Murphy and Declan Kearney gave a firm commitment that the Executive "will deliver on this vital project".
The West Belfast MP said: "Ministers Michelle O'Neill, Declan Kearney and Conor Murphy along with Sinn Féin Sport, Culture and Arts spokesperson Sinead Ennis and myself as MP for West Belfast met with the Ulster GAA on the Casement Park redevelopment.
"It is more than ten years since the Casement Park project was announced and more than seven years since Antrim Gaels had a home.
"We took the opportunity today to reemphasise our party’s continued support for the Casement Park redevelopment.
"The development of Casement Park is a priority for Sinn Féin and we have brought it directly to the Executive.
"A regenerated Casement Park will be a first-class asset to the further development of Ulster and Antrim GAA.
"It will also bring enormous social and economic benefits to the local community of West Belfast."
