  2. Debate contribution: Sectarian Hate Crimes

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    It was interesting to hear the Minister speak about the tightness of resources in the context of what we have heard in the past day about the PSNI opening a hate-crime investigation into damage to a sign at Shandon Park. Can we be assured that there will now be investigations into any similar damage to signs across…

  5. Debate contribution: GP Appointments: Online Booking

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his understandable response. I look forward to seeing his plans being progressed. I noted the BMA's concern about the risk of patients facing harm or serious issues being missed. Does he agree that there can be few systems worse than the current system, whereby we have an 8.00 am lottery, with…

  9. Debate contribution: Northern Ireland Community Infrastructure Fund

    • Ministerial Statement

    I thank the Minister for his statement. The Member who spoke previously talked about exclusion. I am delighted to see that this is a scheme that can offer support from which, for the first time on many an occasion, churches are not excluded. What is the Minister's assessment of the impact that the fund will have on…

    • Motion · Private Members' Motion

    Replacing Irish Language Street Signage Policy in Belfast That this Assembly deplores that, since 2022, only 12 per cent of applications for Irish language street signs approved by Belfast City Council commanded the majority support of residents living there, according to recent media reports; contends that with the…

  14. Debate contribution: Short-term Lets: Regulation

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for her answer. She will surely recognise that the proliferation of short-term lets is corrosive to the cohesion of our communities and to the availability and cost of family homes in those communities. Short-term lets also undermine our hospitality sector. Is there a recognition in the Executive…

  16. Debate contribution: Aerospace and Defence Sectors: Global Promotion

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    At a vital time for that sector, the First Minister boycotted events on St Patrick's Day, boycotted the recent state banquet at Buckingham Palace and said that she was incredulous at the UK Government's recent investment in the sector. Does she think that that behaviour assists businesses to grow in Northern Ireland?

  17. Topical question AQT 1569/22-27

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Mr Brooks asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister, given that, as has been noted by Invest NI, there is no indication of new companies investing in Northern Ireland as a result of supposed dual market access but there is growth in Northern Ireland's valuable aerospace and defence sectors, what they are…

  18. Debate contribution: Bonfire Regulation

    • Private Members' Business

    Sorry, Diane. Does the Member recognise that any sort of regulation on this — I do not think that it is workable — has to have the support of the communities? Does she understand that the experience of working-class unionist communities, in particular, of the Parades Commission means that they do not have confidence…

  20. Debate contribution: Bonfire Regulation

    • Private Members' Business

    The Member paints himself and his party's members as spokespeople for the working class on both sides of the community, yet he seems to be denigrating people. Large crowds attend those bonfires, but they all seem to be being painted as paramilitaries. As someone who paints himself in that regard, do you engage with…

  22. Debate contribution: Bonfire Regulation

    • Private Members' Business

    Well, I am not here to peddle division. What I was going to say to you and the Member who spoke before you is that, in my constituency, I have worked with bonfire builders in Clonduff, Orangefield and Cregagh, where we faced some of those issues and worked with the Legacy Network and the EastSide Partnership. Mr…
