Belfast Council’s £280,000 budget on advertising this year has been questioned at City Hall.
At Belfast City Council ’s recent meeting of its Strategic Policy and Resources Committee, Sinn Féin Councillor Matt Garrett raised the issue before council officers while receiving an update on council contracts.
During the committee elected representatives approved two contracts for £140,000, for up to 18 months, awarded to Clear Channel for advertising at bus stops, and a contract for £140,000, for up to 18 months, awarded to Global Outdoor for bus internal and external advertising.
