Anna Lo MLA said: “There is absolutely no justification for racist graffiti in our society.
“Having been a victim of racist abuse, I know the impact that this sort of behaviour can have on people. No one should have to suffer such abuse.
“Racism is sadly still a problem here. It is important that the First and deputy First Ministers send out a strong message that racism will not be tolerated by publishing a robust racial equality strategy that actually delivers a positive change on the ground.
“Immigration is a good thing for our country, with many immigrants playing a key role in sectors such as the health service. I know the vast majority of the population have welcomed those from different backgrounds. It is only a small minority who continue with this vile abuse.
“If anybody has information about any racist abuse or attack, then I would urge them to contact the Police.”
