A LOCAL MLA has demanded clarity on the reasons for the hold-up in repairing a bridge in County Derry which collapsed during heavy flooding more than six months ago.

On February 3, Mr Dallat received a letter from the Department of Infrastructure citing difficulties reaching agreement with various government departments on a number of issues, including significant fisheries interests as the reason for the delay.
