All of Mr Andrew McMurray’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail the (i) number of applications for Tree Preservation Orders made to local councils, over the last ten years; and (ii) average cost of processing these applications.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail the average cost to local councils for processing applications for (i) non-material changes; and (ii) discharge of conditions.
I thank the Minister for his statement and all that is included in it. Will the disability and work council contact participants throughout the year and afterwards to determine the success of the strategy? What safety nets and measures are there for participants who may find that, with the best will in the world, the…
Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. Apologies for my premature point of order earlier. This is under Standing Order 65(1)(a). I have no skin in the game during Executive Office Question Time, but there were times when, because of chuntering in the House, I could not hear the deputy First Minister or the leader…
I, too, join in the condemnation of those who left an explosive device outside the offices of Ms Kimmins and Mr Hughes. Placing explosive devices in the streets was always wrong, is wrong and will continue to be wrong. That bears being said. We all have constituency staff, and we know of the pride that they take in…
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, pursuant to AQW 21599/22-27, to detail the (i) criteria; and (ii) threshold, required to trigger a departmental intervention under Article 4 of the Harbours (Northern Ireland) Order 2002.
To ask the Minister of Education to detail any actions his Department took with respect to implementing Article 3(1) of The Activity Centres (Young Persons' Safety) (Northern Ireland) Order 1998, while this matter fell under the remit of the Department of Education.
To ask the Minister for Communities to outline any plans, including a timeline, with respect to implementing Article 3(1) of The Activity Centres (Young Persons’ Safety) (Northern Ireland) Order 1998.
To ask the Minister for Communities to detail any actions his Department has taken with respect to implementing Article 3(1) of the Activity Centres (Young Persons’ Safety) (Northern Ireland) Order 1998, since this matter has fallen under the remit of the Department for Communities.
To ask the Minister for Communities to detail any engagement he, and his predecessors, have had with the Department for Education in relation to implementing Article 3(1) of the Activity Centres (Young Persons’ Safety) (Northern Ireland) Order 1998, since the Order was made.
To ask the Minister for Communities to provide his assessment of how the safety of young people, in a paid-for adventure experience, is being ensured (i) in the absence of the licensing scheme that is required under The Activity Centres (Young Persons’ Safety) (Northern Ireland) Order 1998; and (ii) in light of the…
To ask the Minister for the Economy, pursuant to AQO 2391/22-27, to outline (i) whether her Department has always been open to considering alternative Belfast Region City Deal (BRCD) proposals outside of the tourism pillar or whether this is a recent change; (ii) whether she is aware of any potential innovation…
To ask the Minister of Health whether there are plans to reduce the waiting list requirement under the Waiting List Reimbursement Scheme to less than a year.
We are all dismayed at the recent reports of applicants having to wait for a long time for their application to be assessed. Will you please outline what additional resources will be allocated to try to speed up the processing of applications?
I thank the SDLP for tabling the motion. As other Members have highlighted, the cost of the A5 project is staggering, from impeding economic growth in the north-west to causing long journey times and, tragically, preventable deaths. Nearly a decade on since the announcement, the road project has come to represent our…
I am OK for time, I think, Mr Deputy Speaker. I do not want to be chastised for straying too far from the subject of the debate, but I want to make a few brief remarks. I associate myself with the remarks directed to Mrs Erskine. While her presence on the Committee and in the Chamber will be missed, we wish her all…
I note that, last week, Mary Peters was at the 5k and that, this week, we have the World Athletics Championships, so it great to see sport at all levels, which is always to be welcomed. Has a full equality impact assessment been done of the requirement for smaller, less affluent clubs to raise money? Is there a risk…
I thank the Minister for her attendance. The poor state of our roads is no secret, and I can hardly disagree with the motion's sentiment. Less than a year ago, I spoke in an Adjournment debate on the road repairs required in South Down. At that time, Newry, Mourne and Down District Council area had the highest number…
I thank the Minister for his statement. While it is great to see Rathfriland Rangers on the list, there is disappointment from the very north-west to Warrenpoint Town Football Club in the very south-east. The Minister has said that all clubs will progress but "Not yet" to the 17 that were rejected, and that much money…
I thank the Minister for that answer, which leads in to my second question. What assurances can he give that the Department is investigating ways to improve hospital transport provision for less urgent and outpatient appointments?
Mr McMurray asked the Minister of Health, noting that people in his constituency are very anxious about ambulance waiting times for transportation to hospital, what action he is taking to improve C1 and C1T response times in the South Eastern Trust.
