Thank you very much, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. What a lovely, edifying debate to wake us all up on a Tuesday morning.

Debate contribution: Health Crisis
I beg to move: Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker, I will see how far my voice gets me through this. One year ago, this place returned after two years of collapse.

Debate contribution: Enhancing Accountability and Trust in Government
On a point of order, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. Given that the motion calls on the First Minister and deputy First Minister, is it in order that no Minister is in the Chamber? What level of disrespect does it show to the Opposition in this institution that no Minister is prepared to come and answer when they are…

Debate contribution: Waiting Times/Care Packages: Budget 2025-26 Allocation
This is becoming ridiculous. We are told that to save our health service we have to transform, yet we have a Health Minister who says that he does not have enough money to do his day-to-day business never mind undertake transformation. You are the Finance Minister: what are you going to do about it? Are we going to…

Debate contribution: Ambulance Service: Patient Handover Times
Politely, Minister, that is not good enough. The majority of your answer was a regurgitation of the problem. You identify flow as being the issue, which will take considerable time to resolve.
