The Foyle MLA said: “This is a significant day for our country.
“At long last progress can be made on the delivery of the stadium fit for Ulster GAA.
“SDLP Minister Nichola Mallon has acted with careful consideration and care and has decided to approve a recommendation for planning approval for Casement Park.
