Architecture & The Built Environment

Design of Architecture and Built Environment used at launch

In June 2006 the Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure (DCAL) published a new policy on Architecture and the Built Environment for Northern Ireland (A+BE). The policy incorporates an ambitious action plan endorsed by Government departments. The aim is to ensure best value from public expenditure whilst targeting capital investment towards enhancing the visual landscape and improving the quality of life now and for future generations.
