Mr David Honeyford: Assembly records
All of Mr David Honeyford’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
It is a disgrace that, in 2025, female sport has much fewer numbers, a lack of funding and a lack of facilities and that barriers to participation and growth remain across a range of sports. I recently addressed those issues at the Alliance Party conference with Mollie Davies from Ulster Rugby, and Alliance…
You have 45 seconds left. Give me 45 seconds of positivity on how you will reconcile this community, this place, this land, this region, Northern Ireland, whatever you call it. What are you going to do?
I appreciate that the Member struggles with any form of reconciliation and that he nitpicks and niggles at everything that is negative and at the wounds and hurts of the past, but surely the Member's party can see some benefit in sharing this society and working to build a better community that everybody can benefit…
Thank you for giving way. My point is about the strategy. The South has a manufacturing strategy. The four pillars that you mentioned, including regional balance and achieving net zero, all feed into that. When you look at the South's manufacturing strategy, 85% of the jobs that it generates are naturally located…
I also support the motion. From the start, we should get one thing clear: the success that we are having in this area is despite the Assembly and not because of decisions that have been made in this mandate or by any previous Minister. That fact is a disgrace. Businesses have been left to get on with it when the…
Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. I have spoken many times in the Chamber on Alliance's position on renewables. As this is an SDLP mini-motion and time is limited, I will pick up on just a couple of issues. Alliance submitted its amendment in order to enhance the motion. Very simply, the "80 by 30" target cannot be…
Mr Honeyford asked the Minister of Justice what changes, if any, could be made in the justice system to support women and girls and build their confidence in it.
Motion Amendment · Private Members' Motion · to “The Green Energy Transition”
The Green Energy Transition - Amendment 2 Leave out all after ‘Minister for the Economy’ and insert: ‘to work with her counterpart in the Irish Government to accelerate delivery of the North-South Interconnector; and further calls on the Minister to introduce a new renewable energy support scheme to upscale onshore…
I echo the comments that have already been made about the success of Lucy Best and Caolan McConville at the Special Olympics World Winter Games. I was at the launch several months ago at the slopes in Craigavon. That day was full of excitement, and it was fantastic to see. What a journey they have been on. I also…
Social Security Reform and Economic Inactivity That this Assembly opposes the approach of the UK Government to reforming disability benefits; believes that withdrawing or cutting social security support for those most in need risks exacerbating poverty and increasing pressure on other public services; agrees that…
I welcome the Minister to her place. We all have examples of this. In Lagan Valley, residents of the Ayrshire development have lived in their homes for years, yet DFI has reported recently that technical designs were not even done or submitted. Residents have been left frustrated and living with unfinished roads. Will…
I am happy to support the motion. As Kate said, some of the work is already happening. Last month, I clearly laid out Alliance's position on a shared island, which is about working practically to build and share reconciliation here and across the island. That is our focus. I stated that Alliance wanted to see a shared…
I speak as the Alliance spokesperson for the economy and welcome the fact that we have a Programme for Government that seeks to show a path forward that is positive and much-needed. However, any programme is only as good as the ambition and the focus on delivery. We now need to get on with delivering for our economy.…
To ask the Minister for the Economy whether there are any circumstances in Northern Ireland that would mean the Renewable Electricity Support Scheme should start at a different level from the 0.5 megawatts as used in the equivalent scheme in the Republic of Ireland.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure for an update on the development of proposals to realign the junction of the A26 Glenavy Road and Station Road, Moira, with particular reference to traffic from the Ballinderry direction turning right to access Moira Train Station, where the development of the new park and ride…
I thank the Minister for a really detailed response. With regard to the consultations, will you give an update on how stakeholder engagement is happening on the issue?
