  1. Debate contribution: Fuel Poverty

    • Opposition Business

    I thank the proposer of the motion for the opportunity to speak on the issue today. The cost of heating homes to a reasonable standard, like the two-child limit that we have just discussed, is another key driver of poverty. Our over-reliance on oil in the North, with limited alternative options, especially for rural…

  2. Debate contribution: Universal Credit: Remove the Two-child Limit

    • Opposition Business

    Thank you. I thank the Member for his intervention. We believe that this policy discriminates against women and children, is a key driver of child poverty and disproportionately impacts on people here because of our larger family size. The inclusion of what has become known as the "rape clause" highlights just how…

  3. Debate contribution: Universal Credit: Remove the Two-child Limit

    • Opposition Business

    I thank the proposer of the motion for bringing it forward for debate. Clearly, addressing poverty and inequality is one of this institution's principal tasks in this mandate. The two-child limit was a policy decision taken and implemented by the Tory Government in 2017: first, in child tax credits; and, secondly,…

  4. Debate contribution: Child Poverty

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the proposer of the motion for giving us the opportunity to speak on this issue. I also thank the proposers of the amendment, which we will support. With growing levels of child poverty across the North, and with the findings contained within the Audit Office report, it is vital that the Assembly embraces a…

  5. Member's statement: Community Groups

    • Members' Statements

    I want to make a brief statement about community groups. All of us fully understand the value and impact of all these groups. I am talking about a full range of groups, from neighbourhood renewal projects to groups working in the fields of health, education, urban and rural regeneration, community relationships and…

  6. Member's statement: Strabane Town Centre Regeneration

    • Members' Statements

    On a point of order, Mr Speaker. Will you listen again to the contribution of Jim Allister this morning, which contained an unwarranted and disgraceful attack on an entire section of our children? Will you look at his remarks to see whether they were in keeping with the conduct expected in the House?

  7. Member's statement: Young Carers Action Day

    • Members' Statements

    I rise as chair of the all-party group on carers to highlight the fact that tomorrow, 13 March, is Young Carers Action Day. This year's theme is fair futures for young carers, and the day will focus on building a more equal future for young carers and, crucially, removing barriers that many of their peers will not…

  8. Debate contribution: Rural Micro Capital Grant Scheme

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his answers. This is a key scheme for some small groups, because it is the only one that they get. No groups received support last year. Will he, along with the timeline, look at putting in a second scheme in this financial year to support some of those hard-pressed groups?

  9. Debate contribution: A5: Delivery

    • Adjournment

    I thank Nicola for securing an Adjournment debate that brings a very important issue back to the Chamber. I have reflected on some of the things that have been said. I live close to Aughnacloy, and a large part of the A5 runs from Kelly's Inn and right down through that section of Fermanagh and south Tyrone. Where I…

  10. Motion or amendment: International Women’s Day 2024

    • Motion · Private Members' Motion

    International Women’s Day 2024 That this Assembly recognises that International Women’s Day is a global celebration of the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women; believes that this day both serves as a powerful reminder of the progress made towards gender equality and highlights the work that…

  11. Debate contribution: All-island Rail Network

    • Private Members' Business

    I was listening in earlier, and I look forward to hearing the rest of the debate. It was extremely foolhardy that rail was taken out of parts of Tyrone. In the south Tyrone part of Fermanagh and South Tyrone, we had a connection through Dungannon and the Moy, as well as a connection through Caledon, but that is all…
