I welcome the First Minister's statement and the continued emphasis on real and practical North/South delivery, which is important. Will the First Minister provide an update on progress with the Narrow Water bridge? How will the Shared Island investment help to unlock tourism and economic potential in South Down?
Today in the Dáil, Sinn Féin will introduce a private Member's Bill that will require an Taoiseach to get planning and preparation for constitutional change and Irish unity under way. There is already an exciting and energetic debate under way across all four corners of the island about what a new Ireland would look…
What we have witnessed over the past week has been abhorrent, as, unfortunately, has been some of what we have heard in the Chamber this afternoon. Families have been terrorised, and people have been forced from and burned out of their homes in the most brutal way. Those scenes take many of us back to the past. Men,…

To ask the Minister for Communities to detail the amount invested by his Department in the Ulster Fleadh in Warrenpoint, County Down in (i) 2025; and (ii) 2026.
Over the coming months, County Down will proudly take centre stage in a remarkable celebration of culture, music and community spirit. From the county fleadh in Downpatrick, hosted by Lecale Comhaltas, to the Ulster Fleadh in Warrenpoint and culminating in the all-Ireland fleadh in Belfast, we have a wonderful…

On your point about ChatGPT, I am sure that the many teachers who contacted me over the weekend will be deeply offended by what you have just said, because I am repeating what they said to me, including the fears and concerns that they raised. On your other point, you clearly have no respect for the democratic…
I agree with what the Member has said. On the point that the Committee Chair made, with all due respect, the House voted that it had no confidence in the Minister. I certainly have no confidence that he will change the Bill in any way, shape or form that will make it any better. I repeat: the Bill is broken not…
Unlike the Minister, I stand here today in support of our hard-working teachers and school staff, who go above and beyond every day for our children and young people, despite the growing pressures that they face. It is clear that the Bill is an attempt to intimidate and punish teachers who dare to engage in lawful…
Minister, you mentioned a number of positive schemes from your Department. Can you provide us with an update on your proposals for the introduction of a business growth accelerator relief?
