  1. Debate contribution: Digital ID Scheme: Opposition

    • Private Members' Business

    Let me begin by saying that I am not a British citizen. I never have been, and I never will be. The proposal for a so-called BritCard is not just unnecessary but deeply offensive to the principles of the Good Friday Agreement, which guarantees the right of the people in the North to be Irish, British and, indeed,…

  2. Debate contribution: Independent Environmental Protection Agency: Establishment

    • Opposition Business

    Sinn Féin supports the motion and the amendment. We have consistently and publicly called for the creation of an independent environmental protection agency. It is a commitment that has been at the heart of our approach for many years. The simple truth is this: without strong, independent environmental governance,…

  3. Debate contribution: Independent Review of Environmental Governance in Northern Ireland

    • Ministerial Statement

    I thank the Minister for his statement. We absolutely support the creation of an independent environmental protection agency.

    Exclusion of Minister from Office under Section 30 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998 That this Assembly, under section 30(1)(b) of the Northern Ireland Act 1998, resolves that, further to his recent visit to Israel, the Minister of Education no longer enjoys the confidence of the Assembly, because of his failure to…

  5. Debate contribution: Cervical Screening Scandal Inquiry

    • Private Members' Business

    I begin by echoing the thanks already expressed to those who tabled the motion and, most importantly, to the Ladies with Letters campaigners. Their persistence and dignity have forced the system to face uncomfortable truths, and we owe them a huge debt of gratitude for that. As my colleagues have outlined, Sinn Féin…

    • Motion · Private Members' Motion

    Opposition to the British Government’s Mandatory Digital ID Scheme That this Assembly is united in its opposition to the proposal from the British Government to introduce a mandatory digital ID for people here; expresses concern that this flawed proposal could result in the squandering of millions of pounds of public…

    • Executive Committee Business

    Is geal liom deis bheith agam labhairt ar son an Dara Céim den Bhille. I commend the Minister for her clear and determined leadership in bringing the legislation before the Assembly. The Minister has rightly focused on fairness, value for money and the need to protect public finances, but, from an environmental…

  8. Debate contribution: Woodlawn House, Dungannon: Post-19 Adult Respite Provision

    • Adjournment

    I thank the Member for securing the Adjournment debate on an important topic that has caused real worry and distress for families in the Southern Trust area and that speaks to a wider failure in how we support people with additional needs and their carers. Just last week, an 80-year-old mother contacted me in…

  9. Member's statement: Youth Club For All

    • Members' Statements

    I want to take a moment to highlight the incredible work that is being done by Youth Club for All in south Armagh — a small, community-led group with a huge heart and an even greater impact. The group was born out of the determination of parents who simply refused to accept that their children with additional needs…

  10. Debate contribution: Sheep Farming: Sustainable Agriculture Programme

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, do you acknowledge the real risk that the sheep sector, which already faces challenges, could be further disadvantaged and left vulnerable by competing departmental priorities and a policy process that appears to be increasingly disconnected from the realities on the ground?

  11. Debate contribution: ‘Acting on methane: opportunities for the UK cattle and sheep sectors’

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his answer. Minister, given the report's finding that animal health diseases such as bovine TB and sheep scab not only harm productivity but drive up greenhouse gas emissions, and given that climate change and the environment are your top two priorities, how can your Department justify the…

  12. Topical question AQT 1594/22-27

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Ms Finnegan asked the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs, having noted the ongoing delay with the sheep-focused co-design process, whether he can give concrete assurances to the sheep sector, which is the backbone of upland and marginal farming, that it will not be treated as an afterthought in the…
