Six weeks on from the blaze at Primark, Belfast business owners discuss if building should be demolished?
Its been almost 6 weeks since a blaze ripped through the Primark Bank Building in Belfast's city centre. Since then there have been pledges of cash to help from the likes of Belfast City Council and Primark themselves. However, many of the businesses in and around the cordon set up to keep the public at a safe distance from the building are unhappy at the response time from the powers that be. Many are still calling for the building to be demolished to speed up the recovery time in that area. Vinny spoke to Belfast Mayor Deirdre Hargey, Chris Scott who owns West Gourmet Sandwich Bar directly opposite Primark on Castle Street, John Anderson Vice Chair of the Ulster Architectural Heritage Group and Glyn Roberts CEO of Retail NI.
