Cheryl, thank you for securing the debate this evening and for sharing your story. Society and the system make our children with additional needs vulnerable. This is about a very basic ask; it should be there in the first place. In my constituency, I find it very frustrating that so many families need us intervene in…
Exclusion of Minister from Office under Section 30 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998 That this Assembly, under section 30(1)(b) of the Northern Ireland Act 1998, resolves that, further to his recent visit to Israel, the Minister of Education no longer enjoys the confidence of the Assembly, because of his failure to…

I thank the Minister for giving way. When things are good, you, like the Education Minister. always love a wee pat on the back. All the organisations are saying that this will make no tangible difference. How are you going to make that right with those organisations? They are not just making it up, Minister.
I thank the Members who tabled this important motion. In my time in the Assembly, we have had a number of motions highlighting the need to tackle child poverty. Sadly, the current anti-poverty strategy is another false dawn for hard-pressed families in the North. I will be clear from the outset: it is the Minister for…
Does the Member know that this is about dual language signage, in English and Irish, and that nothing is being forced through, because, democratically, that is the policy of Belfast City Council?
Minister, this is your wee trick that you do all the time. You will take all the praise for yourself when you think that everything is going to go right, but, when it is going to go wrong, regardless of what it is, you want to place the blame on everybody else. Make no mistake: this is your Bill.
If you want me to give way, I will give way. You do not have to shout across the Chamber. It is no problem.
