All of Mr Brian Kingston’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
The Member is aware that it is a sensitive topic. Location is key. What is considered acceptable in one area might be considered unacceptable by a resident in another area. We agree with you that flags should not be used to intimidate people or create fear. That should not happen, but my main problem with the Bill is…
I thank the Minister for all that he is doing to provide childcare support and access to preschool education for families across Northern Ireland, as he says, at a time when the birth rate is declining.

I thank the Minister for giving way. Is the issue of character references addressed in the Bill or will it be dealt with in an amendment that she intends to table?
As a DUP member of the Justice Committee, I welcome the Victims and Witnesses of Crime Bill moving to Second Stage.

I welcome all initiatives to reduce the blight and waste represented by domestic…
