  1. Debate contribution: Children's Social Work Teams

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Thank you. Having previously been a social worker, I understand that. The Minister mentioned the shift left: social workers are out there every day of the week on the left and at the coalface. Will the Minister provide an update on what meetings he plans to have with trade unions and representative groups to address…

  2. Debate contribution: Tackling Paramilitarism

    • Opposition Business

    I very much welcome today's motion. It is particularly well timed, given the level of public anger about the two separate Loyalist Communities Council (LCC) meetings with DUP Ministers in past weeks. When the LCC was founded almost a decade ago, many hoped that it would be instrumental in facilitating loyalist…

    Beidh an Lá Idirnáisiúnta um Dhíothú na Bochtaineachta ann an tseachtain seo.

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Mr Gildernew asked the Minister of Health whether, given that he will be acutely aware of the serious issues and workforce challenges in children's social work teams right across the North, he will advise what action he has taken to date to address the key issues, including better pay, and to reduce high staff vacancy…

  5. Member's statement: Minister for Communities: Loyalist Communities Council

    • Members' Statements

    Last Tuesday, the Communities Minister, Gordon Lyons, held a meeting with the Loyalist Communities Council (LCC) at its request. That was the second such meeting between the LCC and a DUP Minister in a matter of weeks. Those meetings have generated large media interest, and the public are, rightly, expressing concerns…

  6. Urgent oral question: Minister for Communities Meeting with Loyalist Communities Council

    Minister for Communities Meeting with Loyalist Communities Council To ask the Minister for Communities what he discussed at his meeting on 8 October 2024 with representatives of the Loyalist Communities Council.

  7. Debate contribution: Job Creation: DWP/DFC Collaboration

    • Ministerial Statement

    I thank the Minister for his statement. The Minister has announced 1,000 jobs — I very much welcome that — but not one of those jobs is based in Tyrone, Fermanagh or Armagh. In my view, the Minister has missed a golden opportunity to create a more regionally balanced economy, which is an Executive commitment, and to…

  8. Member's statement: Paediatric Pathology

    • Members' Statements

    I draw to Members' attention a very important issue, on this week, which is Baby Loss Awareness Week, and, obviously, a heart-rending situation for many of our families. One particular angle that I want to address this morning is paediatric pathology; that is, post-mortems on children lost to miscarriage or stillbirth…

  9. Debate contribution: Housing Supply Strategy

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister. The supply strategy sets out a vision for housing and a route map to ensuring that everyone has safe, quality and affordable homes. How will you ensure that you have the capital allocations required for social and affordable housing and that they do not continue to fall short of the strategy's…

  11. Member's statement: St Ciaran's College: Campaign for Upgrade to A5

    • Members' Statements

    I draw attention to and praise St Ciaran's College in Ballygawley for its role in campaigning for the A5 road upgrade. The school originally launched a campaign to try to improve safety measures on the road. Tragically, 48 hours later, one of its students, Kamile Vaicikonyte, who took part in that safety campaign,…

  12. Debate contribution: Waste Management Issues: Warrenpoint

    • Adjournment

    I thank the Member for giving way and the Member who brought this Adjournment debate to the House. It is such an important area.

    Go raibh maith agat. Minister, I am sure that you are aware that I will host some of the rural support network groups here on 11 November, and I would very much like to invite you to that.

  14. Debate contribution: Subregional Economic Plan

    • Ministerial Statements

    I thank the Minister for his statement and, particularly, for his commitment to delivering a coherent strategy to address regional imbalance. Minister, given that that is a commitment in the draft Programme for Government, do you expect other Departments to contribute to achieving greater regional balance?

  16. Member's statement: Shared Area Maintenance Contracts

    • Members' Statements

    I raise the issue of property management companies and shared area maintenance contracts in residential estates across the North. It has been raised recently with me as a constituency MLA, with me outside my constituency in my Committee role and, as of last week, with the Committee for Communities. It appears that a…

  17. Member's statement: Telecommunications Mast: Dungannon

    • Members' Statements

    I bring to Members' attention the issue of the telecommunications mast that is right at the top of Dungannon town on the historic Hill of The O'Neill site. The site was originally the seat of the O'Neills, chosen for its panoramic views across seven of Ulster's nine counties. It is an intrinsically beautiful site.…

  18. Debate contribution: Economic Landscape

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his focus on economic disadvantage and not strictly economic inactivity. Given the importance of supporting people with significant barriers to employment and the cross-cutting nature of that work, will the Minister outline what his Department is doing collaboratively with other Departments…
