Mr Danny Donnelly: Assembly records
All of Mr Danny Donnelly’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
I welcome the opportunity to speak on the motion. Like other members of the Health Committee, I was briefed previously on the matter. The regulations form a critical part of a framework that governs how medicines are authorised, manufactured, distributed and made available to patients in Northern Ireland. While the…
I thank the Minister for that answer. What is the Minister's assessment of the recent Climate Change Committee (CCC) advice on the fourth carbon budget?
Mr Donnelly asked the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs for his assessment of the recent Climate Change Committee (CCC) advice on the benefits of renewable electricity.
Thank you, Minister, for that answer. Your Department received the largest capital budget of any Department in 2025-26 and in the history of the Northern Ireland Civil Service. In order to spend that money strategically and wisely, do you share my colleagues' and my view that an infrastructure commission would help us…
Thank you. Your colleague mentioned that, on one of her visits to an A&E department, 60-odd patients were waiting for a decision to admit and 60-odd were medically fit. Sixty patients in an A&E department who should be on a ward is three wards' worth of patients in A&E. The A&E staff have to deliver that care within…
I thank the SDLP for tabling the motion. It is timely, following the publication of the recent Audit Office report on ambulance handover times, and the issue affects everyone in the Chamber. We will support both amendments. In January, the Alliance Party brought a motion on the issue to the Chamber for debate. It…
Mr Donnelly asked the Minister for Infrastructure for her assessment of the potential impact that an expert-led independent infrastructure commission will have on capital infrastructure projects.

To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, in light of the suspension of the Living With Water Programme and the current status of a significant proportion of Combined Sewer Overflows, to detail her (i) long-term; and (ii) immediate plans to address the issue of sewage pollution entering Belfast Lough and across the…
Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs
To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs to outline how he is working with his counterparts in the rest of the UK and Ireland to address the climate crisis.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure for her assessment of the potential impact that an expert led, independent Infrastructure Commission will have on capital infrastructure projects.
Sorry, I will just correct that. My point was that the war on drugs in the UK has failed. Drugs are available in cities, towns and villages across Northern Ireland. The war-on-drugs policies do not work, and prohibition has not worked: we need to move on and try something else.
I thank the DUP for tabling the motion. Tragically, 18-year-old Jeni Larmour died on 3 October 2020 after consuming alcohol and ketamine on her first night at university. She was a former deputy head girl at the Royal School Armagh and clearly had her whole life in front of her. I cannot imagine the pain of such a…
To ask the Minister of Health, following the March 2025 Northern Ireland Audit Office report Ambulance Handovers in Northern Ireland, to detail any action he will take to improve ambulance handover times.
Thank you Mr Deputy Speaker. I thank the proposer of the motion and all who spoke for their contributions. I will make a few points before highlighting some of the points raised by Members who spoke previously. As my colleague from Lagan Valley said when proposing it, our amendment does not seek to change the motion,…
Minister, people do not "suffer from" autism; they have autism. What discussions have you had with the Minister of Education about the provision of nurses in special schools?
Ambulance Handover Times To the Minister of Health what action he will take to improve ambulance handover times, following today’s Audit Office review on the impact of handover delays.
