North Ireland Environment Minister Alex Attwood has granted planning permission for a Peace Building and Conflict Resolution Centre at the Maze, formerly the site of a controversial prison during the Troubles, as a petition calling for the Maze conflict centre to be relocated has been launched at Stormont, with petitioners wanting the prison buildings to be de-listed and demolished.
The decision on the Maze/ Long Kesh redevelopment follows the recent approval for the relocation of the Balmoral show to the site. The building was designed by world renowned architect Daniel Libeskind along with McAdam Design.
