:07:41. > :07:48.A report for the Council says Belfast falls well below the cities
:07:49. > :07:54.in terms of luxury or high end retail. There are gaps in the high

:08:54. > :08:56.don't think we mind. We want to be supportive of seeing the business
:08:57. > :09:01.community develop and I'd be a great place to people to come and spend
:09:02. > :09:05.time. John Lewis has always been seen as favouring spruce field, than
:09:06. > :09:09.a planning application is presently on the table. But with this report,
:09:10. > :09:15.Belfast is signalling it is not giving up on a new department store.
:09:16. > :09:20.John Lewis 's been actively courted. There's a retail element to a major
