    As an independent and constitutional unionist, I like to think that I approach issues from the perspective of practical governance that works for everyone in Northern Ireland.

    • Ministerial Statements

    Minister, I have consistently raised with you the impact of second home ownership, particularly in areas such as the north coast. Ultimately, the solution is to build more houses, particularly social and affordable homes, and your statement goes into that. However, as part of the strategy, will the Minister commit to…

  6. Debate contribution: Northern Ireland Assembly Commission: Budget 2025-26

    • Assembly Business

    As the only Member who does not receive financial assistance for political parties, my question is this: does the Member have a view on how we better support independents? I am the longest-serving independent Member — 10 years — and would gratefully receive that support.

    • Private Members' Business

    I am pleased to join political parties in supporting the motion. Homelessness remains one of the most urgent and growing issues of our generation.

  9. Debate contribution: Compulsory Age for Education and SEN Provision

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, I appreciate that, but, given that your colleague in the Government said that it was unlikely that such legislation would go through in this mandate, will you commit to working with the Minister for the Economy to see whether we can use your Bill as a vehicle in order to, finally, get that through?

  10. Debate contribution: 0-3 Learning Framework

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, do you have any plans to review the criteria for Sure Start provision? Typically, it is now used via postcode. In my constituency, a couple of million-pound houses qualify for Sure Start provision, yet pockets of people who may receive benefits do not.
