Mr Danny Baker: Assembly records
All of Mr Danny Baker’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not qualifying, uncertain or not yet analysed.
I was at the final yesterday: it was a great, tight game that just did not go our way. The sentiment of the GAA community in west Belfast is this: they believe that Casement Park is essential, and they know that it will be delivered. Does the Minister agree that it is a positive development not just for the GAA but…
Go raibh maith agat, a Phríomh-Leas-Cheann Comhairle. I thank those Members who have contributed to the debate and those who have supported the legislation throughout. I thank the Bill Office for its professional support and guidance throughout. That is why I am going to reject all the amendments, because I have real…
Minister, I will jog your memory of that night. You were being interviewed in Lisburn in the midst of a protest that you attended and supported at which there was a crowd of masked men. We know what happened that night: businesses were instructed to close and were intimidated into doing so; migrants were subjected to…
They are very technical amendments, so any Members who were to divide on them would be dancing on the head of a pin. You were trying to return to the principles of the Bill. Your Minister — You can laugh, but not a single amendment has come from the DUP Benches. You did not even engage at Committee Stage. You kept…
That is why I introduced legislation: so that it will be set out in law that the Education Minister will be responsible for making it. It almost sounded as though your colleague was having a bit of a go at you when he said that everything was rushed during COVID and not done properly, when you were sitting there as…
I start by thanking everyone who helped me to get the Bill to Consideration Stage, particularly Jonathan and Stephen. We have worked back and forth on the amendments with the Committee. It was a very good Committee Stage, and that is what has made for quite a comfortable Consideration Stage, if I am brutally honest,…
You are on the Education Committee with me. You heard the evidence: you know that some children are returning to school four and a half months behind their peers who are not on free school meals; you know that children on free school meals are five times more likely to leave school without five GCSEs. The evidence is…
Again, it goes back to talking about the Education budget. We could play this game, and I could knock it back and forward with you all day. He is spending multi millions of pounds on TransformEd; he is spending multi millions of pounds on football pitches that schools do not ask for; and he is spending money from the…
This is the Bill's Consideration Stage, not its Second Stage, which was to debate its principles. Are you going to talk about the principles of the Bill again or about the proposed amendments to it? What is the DUP's position? Are you going to vote against the Bill at the end of the legislative process? I do not…
I want to take the opportunity to say that I will work with you and the Committee to tidy that up at Further Consideration Stage, if needs be. That is not an issue. That goes for anything that comes out of this stage. Thank you.
You could ask that question about TransformEd, mobile phone pouches or football pitches. To compare this legislation to parking a car is wrong; they are completely different. We are talking about feeding children, not being facetious and trying to put a political point-score on it. Your party's Committee member never…
The Education Minister is not here. He has not been supportive from the get-go. I say this to Members, however: every Minister has a budget, but you do not sit here and ask that question when it comes to —.
