17. Notice of Motion proposed by Councillor C Archibald, seconded by Councillor McShane
This Council recognises and values the huge contribution our LGBTQIA+ citizens make to the area and rejects all forms of discrimination against the LGBTQIA+ community.
 Takes note of the first Causeway Pride event which was a significant and positive initiative for the north coast.
 As a statement of our solidarity with our LGBTQIA+ citizens and community and as a show of positive and progressive change this Council commits to supporting the organisation of an annual Pride parade.
 And calls on Council to engage with the Causeway Pride Committee, other relevant groups and organisations to work collectively on the organisation of a parade or pride festival.
