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 that response. I very much welcome the proposed improvements to the park. Minister, I am in that park often. One of the most common questions that I get from users of the country park is whether the duck pond will be reinstated. I pose that question to you today in order for me to be able to…
I thank the Minister for the response. Minister, your answer in April was that an updated route assessment and cost estimate would be required before there could be any announcement about a Ballykelly bypass. Has the work on that started? Do you have a timetable for the work?
I thank the Minister for his response. What additional funding is required, beyond the current offer from the UK Government, in order to put the Executive's finances on a solid and sustainable footing?
At the outset, it is important to state that there was a game-changer announcement yesterday from the Health Minister. We need to applaud him and the previous Health Minister for that. Collectively, as a Committee, we have worked very well. All of us can put our differences aside, despite what has been a very…
Will the First Minister tell the House and the two million people in this Province what she fears from 35 Orangemen, walking peacefully and silently down a road in the early hours for a few minutes?
The statutory rule is relatively technical, but it is an important part of ensuring that the Tobacco and Vapes Act 2026 can operate effectively in Northern Ireland. The regulations update the existing fixed penalty framework so that the offences and penalties that are applicable to tobacco, vaping and nicotine…
I thank the Minister for that response. Will she assure me that Limavady courthouse will not be allowed to fall into a poor state of repair while the future of the facility is resolved?
I thank the Minister. Given the importance of the matter and the concerns that there will be, what assessments will be made of increased travel times for expectant mums?
Like others, I welcome the Minister to his new portfolio. How will patients, staff and concerned groups, especially in my constituency where there are huge concerns about the possible loss of emergency general surgery at Causeway, hold the new process to account?
I thank the Member for that response. I very much welcome the addition of a padded protective area, which is something that I had lobbied for. I am keen to know whether there are any plans to increase the number of Changing Places facilities in Parliament Buildings in order to improve accessibility for staff and…
Like others, I support the motion. For many individuals and couples across Northern Ireland, the dream of becoming parents is accompanied by years of emotional heartbreak. Couples who have undergone that journey will tell you that it is the uncertainty that kills them. For those individuals, IVF is often the only…
I thank the Minister for his answers. Will he provide an estimate of the number of outpatient appointments, procedures and operations that may be postponed as a result of the strike action?
Forgive me, Minister, for also using emotional language, but reading about some of the cruelty towards those incredibly vulnerable people is like reading about what happened in a Nazi concentration camp, except that it was not a concentration camp; it was a First World healthcare facility where people should have been…
Like others, I condemn outright any threat to any healthcare worker in the Province. Can the Minister detail to the House how many international healthcare workers have left their role as a result of the recent unrest? What support is being offered to staff who have experienced intimidation, harassment or fear?
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 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…
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?
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?
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…
I, like others, very much welcome the opportunity to speak on this important motion. In the previous Assembly mandate, it was the DUP that brought forward the legislation that was designed to help speed up diagnosis, intervention and support for people with autism. The Autism Act and subsequent amendments were…
