Ms Gina McIntyre:

We have not done that because we have never been asked for a translation. The Border counties had a lot of good experience of embedding the Syrian community when it came so we encouraged the Northern Ireland authorities to talk to the Departments and to gain experience from their southern colleagues in the councils. In all our applications, we encourage people to engage with the new communities so we encourage projects to include the costs for translation services and for any issues that are causing a barrier to people getting involved.

It could be very simple ideas such as funding for making sports kit available for some of the new communities to get involved. We are pushing that at all times across the programme.
