Mr David Brooks: Assembly records
All of Mr David Brooks’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not qualifying, uncertain or not yet analysed.
To ask the Minister for the Economy to detail any opportunities that exist to ensure Northern Ireland can benefit from the increasing focus on drone technology within the defence sector.
Does the Member accept that our position, as it has been laid out and although it is different from hers, is that schools should have autonomy to decide those things? It is not about appointing anyone, least of all men specifically, to make those decisions; it is about school leadership. Some school leaders will be…
I recognise that the Member is being genuine, as all Members have been as they have laid out their reasoning, and I have some sympathy with that. However, Northern Ireland is being portrayed almost as an outlier. Does she accept that such legislation is not present in England or in the Republic of Ireland and that,…
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure whether a small-wheeled motorcycle, scooter or moped, under 50cc engine, is required to undergo a roller brake test as part of the MOT inspection.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure whether a small-wheeled motorcycle, scooter or moped, with an engine capacity of under 50cc, is required to undergo a headlight alignment test as part of the MOT inspection.
I will say a few words rather make a lengthy speech. The Justice Bill is coming up, and I am sure that my colleague Mr Frew will have that covered. I rise not to oppose the Committee Stage extension but just to place on record my party's view, which the Chair has reflected, that the deadline should not be a target but…
I echo the sentiments that racism is always wrong, but one of the pressures that are causing frustration is the lack of social and affordable housing, particularly in our most deprived communities. That has been exacerbated by Mears's operation. Sinn Féin has been vocal in criticising the Irish Government for their…
The Minister said that the candidates were presented to her for selection. Were the candidates presented to her in rank order? If so, which specific skills, expertise and experience did Peter Lynch display that made him particularly appointable?
— that will no doubt be the first of many court cases. Our net zero targets are hampering the A5 project, and they will hamper the York Street interchange scheme. Experts say that they will affect pretty much every major road project that is proposed for this place. Is he willing to continue to risk lives and economic…
I join my colleague Mr Brett in saying, without hesitation, that violence is wrong. Our party has always said that. Attacking the police, who have nothing to do with the grievances expressed, is wrong. Burning buses and cars is wrong. Forcing families from their homes is wrong: it is wrong whenever those people are…

Mr Brooks asked the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs, having pointed out that his colleague Pam Cameron dealt neatly with issues regarding agriculture, to detail what engagement he has had with other Ministers to resolve issues with making progress on critical infrastructure, which has hit a…
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the number of service users who were affected by the data breach reported within the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust Imaging Service on 6 May 2026, including (i) the nature of the breach; (ii) the categories of information involved; (iii) the number of individuals notified;…
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the number of data breaches involving service users' personal information have occurred within the South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust, in each of the last four years.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the number of data breaches involving service users' personal information that have occurred within the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust, in each of the last four years.
Like many of those who have spoken before me, I will first speak to amendments Nos 74 and 75, and then I will turn to amendment No 90 that my colleague Mr Frew worked cross-party to draft, and which will increase the powers to confiscate e-scooters and scramblers, which is particularly relevant to my constituency.…
I thank the Member for giving way. Having just listened to the Minister's contribution, I understand that one reason why we have a legal limit for alcohol is that alcohol is a legal substance. There are prescription drugs and so on, but should it not be the case with illegal drugs that any amount detected should be…
To ask the Minister of Justice whether she has any plans to introduce legislation, similar to Sections five and Section six of the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022, to ensure that, when police driving incidents are investigated or prosecuted, appropriate weight is given to the specialist training received…
