'Where is Ireland's true nature, it could be anywhere in Ireland, so we will not be supporting this most strenuously and we will be bringing it up again in full council.'
The DUP has "strenuously" rejected a tourism branding of Newry , Mourne and Down as 'Ireland's True Nature' over concerns the unionist community has been "ignored".
Mournes DUP cllr, Glyn Hanna said: "Our group leader has spent a lot of time and effort into this and we spoke about it among ourselves and we believe that we have pretty much been ignored. NMDDC held a six week public consultation on the draft tourism strategy in September 2023 with contributions from stakeholders and citizens.
"There is a lack of actual nitty gritty, the specifics and real detail on the framework. Economic growth is often associated with environmental degradation. Infinite growth on a finite planet doesn't work.
