Mr Alan Robinson: Assembly records
All of Mr Alan Robinson’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not qualifying, uncertain or not yet analysed.
I thank the Minister for his answer. When he meets Shared Environmental Services, does he intend to discuss any additional staffing requirements in order to meet the increasing demand for environmental assessments that are linked to planning applications?
I welcome the announcement by the Prime Minister this morning that the Government intend to introduce a ban on social media access for those under the age of 16. The DUP supports efforts to better protect children and young people online. We have all seen growing evidence of the negative impact that social media can…
I thank the Minister for that response. At the weekend, I was speaking to someone who drives a small scooter, and he told me that he spends as much time looking down at potholes, for his own safety, as he does looking around him for traffic. Temporary pothole repairs are not cutting it. What do you say to road users…
Mr Robinson asked the Minister for Infrastructure, given that the condition of many roads across Northern Ireland is getting worse, what additional action she and her Department are taking to address the growing backlog of road repairs.
Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs
To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs to outline any discussions he has had with Shared Environmental Service in relation to environmental responses to planning applications.
I thank the Minister for his response. Despite staff raising concerns in 2020, it appears that action was not taken until three years later. What changes will now be introduced across Health and Social Care to ensure that concerns raised by staff or patients about such procedures are acted on more quickly in future?
I thank the Minister for that response. Has he or his Department assessed what additional financial or staffing resources may be required to support the effective operation of Jade's law, if and when it is implemented?
To ask the Minister of Health whether he plans to initiate an independent inquiry into the use of Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation orders in Health and Social Care Trusts during the COVID-19 pandemic.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail when her Department plans to address obscured sightlines due to overgrown shrubbery at the Dunsilly Roundabout.
To ask the Minister for Communities to detail any plans to fast-track the Disabled Facilities Grant process for those living with Motor Neurone Disease.
To ask the Minister of Health to outline any support being offered to patients experiencing distress following recall letters being issued to those that have had a Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy device fitted.
We are content to support the motion on the basis that we wish to see the Minister consider how a 111 service has functioned on mainland GB and how effective it has been, particularly how it has impacted on EDs, GPs and the Ambulance Service. I say that respectfully to Colin, who has some personal experience of how it…
Can the Minister detail to the House the targets and timelines that the Department has set for restoring public trust and increasing cervical screening uptake across Northern Ireland?
I thank the Minister for that response. What additional powers, if any, does the Minister intend to provide to local councils and enforcement agencies to help tackle illegal dumping?
Gregory Campbell and I met representatives from Ulster University on Friday past regarding the proposed redundancies at the university. Following the meeting, we remain concerned, particularly for the Coleraine campus and the wider north coast economy. Coleraine uni is a vital economic, social and cultural anchor for…
Mr Robinson asked the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs whether he has any plans to introduce tougher fines against those involved in illegal dumping and fly-tipping.
Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Devices To ask the Minister of Health what assurances he will give to patients recalled as a result of the Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) review in the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust.
Thank you very much, Mr Deputy Speaker. I very much welcome the opportunity to speak on this important and timely motion. I thank the Members who tabled it, and I hope that they can support our amendment. We have heard the term "a lifeline" used in the Chamber many times. How fitting is that term for home care or…
