Alex Easton MLA has today called for Ards and North Down Council to clean up the Millisle paddling pool, after pictures were sent to him showing the area unkempt and dirty.

Speaking today Alex Easton MLA said:

“I have received a complaint about the state of the paddling pool in Millisle that is covered in green algae and is actually dangerous to walk on, it is also a hazard for a children and adults who wish to use the paddling pool. I am urging the Council, to take action to clean the Millisle Paddling pool as a matter of urgency as they are starting to be used on a more regular basis, safety first must be our priority and keeping sites clean, it is not acceptable that this has been allowed to get into such a state.”
