Mr Colin McGrath: Assembly records
All of Mr Colin McGrath’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, pursuant to AQW 10664/22-27, and given his Department has oversight of the five Health and Social Care Trusts, for his assessment of the questions contained in AQW 9135/22-27.
To ask the Minister of Health (i) to detail how much the Health and Social Care Trusts spent on autism support in each of the last five years; and (ii) to provide a breakdown of how that money was spent.
To ask the Minister of Health (i) to detail how much his Department spent on autism support in each of the last five years; and (ii) to provide a breakdown of how that money was spent.
The beauty of an Adjournment debate is that you can never work out where it is going to go in the politics and messages that were previously relayed. Obviously, I am not from the North Down and Ards area. I am part of the South Eastern Trust area, and I am just surprised that I am not here talking about closures to…
On the back of the cross-party motion, will the Minister undertake to write again to the Ministers to get cross-party buy-in rather than have nothing? A small amount from each Department might allow this important role to be put in place, which is the crucial thing that we need to do.
I welcome the opportunity to take part in this important debate. It can be born out of frustration with the lack of movement on this issue that we are focusing maybe a little bit on what has not happened, and that may be perceived as being a little bit on the negative side. If we put that into context, we had the…
On behalf of the staff and parents but especially on behalf of the children of Knockevin, I thank the Minister for his statement and the announcement that is in it. We have waited many years for this day. I am afraid that I cannot confirm whether the child who pulled your ear was put up to it in advance of the visit…
The discussions about tourism at the NSMC meeting have been mentioned, including the appointment of Alice Mansergh as CEO of Tourism Ireland. Given the opportunity for joined-up working through the NSMC, does the First Minister agree that the development of the Ireland's Ancient East brand must extend beyond the…
I want to make a Member's statement about the provision of mental health services in South Down, notably those that are offered by three local organisations that I have worked with, Life Change Changes Lives in Downpatrick, Mind Your Mate and Yourself (MYMY) in Newcastle and Castlewellan and The Well in the kingdom of…
To ask the Minister of Health (i) for an update on the development of the Area Integrated Partnership Boards; and (ii) what boards have been established.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the number of people awaiting a domiciliary care package to enable hospital discharge, broken down by hospital.
I welcome the opportunity to take part in the debate, and I thank the Member for tabling the motion. I echo some of his opening remarks. I feel a bit lonely, because we do not have a Minister here to pick up on any of the discussion that we are having or the points that we raise or the fact that we are highlighting…
Has the First Minister considered the appointment of a dedicated advocate for the victims and survivors of mother-and-baby institutions, given that many of them feel left behind and let down by the process?
I welcome the opportunity to participate in the debate and support the motion as presented. There are many reasons why children may be taken into foster care. Most children come into care as a result of some form of neglect. They may have experienced a family breakdown, including domestic violence. They may have been…
Does the Member agree that, when we had the discussions about the original Bill, never mind delays, there was no mention of criteria being put in place that staff would have to meet to avail themselves of free parking? The whole way through the process, we were led to believe that staff would be able to access free…
Most of this conversation is around two or three issues, all of which will have been known when the Bill was passed. We are hearing a lot about financial implications. It would be clearer to simply say, "We just do not have the money to do this at this time, and that is what we are looking the extension for".…
I welcome the opportunity to speak at Consideration Stage. While I welcome the Minister's response on the Bill last week and the level of clarity provided in his comments, it was as a result of those comments that we felt an amendment would be the best course of action. In the previous mandate, all Executive parties…
Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza That this Assembly condemns the ongoing genocide in Gaza that has left more than 35,000 people dead, most of them women and children; further condemns the actions of Hamas on October 7th which left 1,300 people dead and many families searching for loved ones; abhors the killing of…
To ask the Minister of Health, pursuant to AQW 9135/22-27, who holds a regional contract with the British Red Cross for provision of mobility aid services.
