Ms Cara Hunter: Assembly records
All of Ms Cara Hunter’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 of Health whether an assessment has been made of health outcomes for those requiring ambulance transfer to Antrim Area Hospital or Altnagelvin Hospital, in the event that emergency care and surgery services are withdrawn from the Causeway Hospital.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail any assessment his Department has made in relation to (i) the health outcomes of patients on the Causeway coast who require an anaesthetist to be present in an ambulance transfer to either Antrim Area Hosptial or Altnagelvin Hospital; and (ii) whether an anaesthetist could…
To ask the Minister of Health whether his Department has made an assessment of how long Causeway Hospital Emergency Department can sustain its current status.
I thank the Minister for his statement and warmly welcome it. Given that time is of the essence, is it possible to provide more than one AED for schools that are on a large campus or that have multiple buildings?
To ask the Minister of Education to detail the number of schools that have reported black mould on their campus since the start of the 2023-24 academic year.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail the main roads in the East Derry constituency that are guaranteed to be gritted during periods of heavy snow.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure for an update on the number of people who had their land vested as part of the A6 project and have not yet been compensated.
To ask the Minister of Health whether the combination of dabrafenib and trametinib, as available in Wales, has been approved to treat childhood gliomas in Northern Ireland.
I take the opportunity to welcome the Member who secured the Adjournment debate to the Education Committee. We have had him with us for the past few weeks now, which has been great. I thank him so much for bringing the topic to the Chamber, because it is such an important issue. Every child deserves the opportunity to…
I thank the Minister for her answer. Understandably, women across the north-west still feel unsafe. There has been a community response, including self-defence classes in Limavady, which is brilliant. Since those attacks just weeks ago, has the Minister engaged with the policing and community safety partnership (PCSP)…
To ask the Minister of Education how long schools will have to wait for a new IT system to be put in place, following the collapse of the Fujitsu IT contract.
To ask the Minister of Education to detail the amount of money his Department estimates to have been lost given the Fujitsu IT systems will no longer be implemented.
To ask the Minister of Education to detail (i) who made the decision to end the deal between the Education Authority and Fujitsu; and (ii) the rationale for this decision.
Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. Unaffordable childcare costs impact on so many families in Northern Ireland. For so many, it is not just a policy issue but an everyday human struggle. Parents who work every hour that God sends are rightly angry, annoyed and tired. They are tired of working hard but somehow never having…
I thank the Minister for that detailed answer. Minister, I will bring to your attention briefly the story of a family based in Greysteel in my constituency. They have a young girl called Maisie who has complex needs and was told that she would have to wait a year to get a tooth that was causing her so much bother that…
To ask the Minister of Justice whether considerations will be made to extend the offense of domestic abuse to those under 18 years of age who perpetrate violent crimes towards an intimate partner.
To ask the Minister of Health, given the increase in financial pressures, to detail any action his Department is taking to support our GPs with running costs.
To ask the Minister of Finance whether his Department is exploring rates relief for local businesses, given that whilst businesses in Britain received up to 75 per cent relief during Covid and 40 per cent now, business owners here have never received this support.
To ask the Minister of Education to detail any work his Department is undertaking to prevent further strike action by teachers, given that the four main teacher unions suggest that strike action may be imminent if further pay is not agreed.
To ask the Minister for the Economy to detail the steps his Department is taking to ensure that students studying in the Republic of Ireland receive instalments of their student loan on time, as many students are reporting late receipt of their loan instalments.
I welcome the opportunity to speak on the motion. I will start with a number of harrowing statistics. Around 24% of children in Northern Ireland live in poverty, which is higher than in all other places across these islands. Over 100,000 children in the North qualify for free school meals. That is around 30%, which…
I rise to speak about an issue that matters greatly to my constituents, which is ending violence against women and girls. Over the past number of weeks, we have seen a disgusting increase in attacks on women, particularly in the north-west. Last week, in Guildhall Square, I stood shoulder to shoulder with some of my…
It is crystal clear that young people reject paramilitary activity in their community. Young people listening today will be disappointed that you met that group, because they want to leave violence behind and to leave groups associated with violence outside the conversation about education. Can you provide the Chamber…
As recently as Friday, Minister, I was at a school and spoke with parents, teachers and principals about the lack of responsiveness from the EA. Off the back of that, can you detail some specific examples of what has been done to transform the work culture in the EA with regard to criticism about a lack of…
