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.
Thank you, Minister, for that response. Removing HGVs from Hillsborough is absolutely vital for residents. HGVs are making the state of the roads in the village worse. There is an area from the war memorial round to Lisburn Street that has completely broken down; people are getting their cars wrecked. Is there…
Over three years ago, I met the residents of the Carnreagh area of Royal Hillsborough with the Department's permanent secretary to discuss the removal of heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) from the village. It was agreed that a report would be done, and I thank the Minister for meeting the same residents last summer,
This is a really good initiative to help our high streets and to support our local traders, and I welcome that. However, there was and is an issue with communication with the public to do with public parking in council car parks and getting a ticket because it was not on-street parking. Moving forward, is there any…
I absolutely agree with the Minister on that, and I thank her for the statement. Minister, we are talking about delivery targets for tourism, and you talked about strategic growth in international tourism, which is about bringing more people here, and how welcome that is. You talked a bit about the brand and aligning…
The Minister regularly highlights dual market access as an opportunity for growth, which I and Alliance welcome; it creates opportunities and is common sense. All the time in the House, we hear data being questioned and Northern Ireland being talked down. Will the Minister outline whether the Council has examined how…
Mr Honeyford asked the Minister for Infrastructure for an update on where the report sits and when it will be published and on whether HGVs will be removed from Royal Hillsborough.
To ask the First Minister and deputy First Minister to outline the work that is ongoing to raise awareness of the final seven months of the Troubles Permanent Disablement Payment Scheme.
I will take a slightly different approach. Many of our roads have been opened by utility companies, and the reinstatement work that is then done breaks down. Our constituents should not pay twice for the repair. What work has the Department done to make sure that such work is done properly the first time? Has the…
To ask the Minister of Education whether he has made any assessment of the administrative burden placed on schools, and childcare providers, participating in the Northern Ireland Childcare Subsidy Scheme.
To ask the Minister of Education to detail the number of (i) primary schools; and (ii) school-based wrap-around childcare providers, (a) currently registered; and (b) not registered, to deliver the Northern Ireland Childcare Subsidy Scheme.
To ask the Minister of Education whether he plans to make any changes to the Northern Ireland Childcare Subsidy Scheme to ensure that eligible families are not excluded due to (i) provider-level administrative; or (ii) technical, barriers.
To ask the Minister of Education to detail any (i) financial, (ii) administrative, and (iii) technical, support being provided to schools, and other childcare providers, to enable them to register for, and deliver, the Northern Ireland Childcare Subsidy Scheme.
To ask the Minister of Education to detail any steps his Department is taking to ensure that the Northern Ireland Childcare Subsidy Scheme is accessible in practice to working parents whose children attend school-based wrap-around childcare provision.
I welcome the fact that the Minister said that he is listening and that the process has been paused. I worry, however, that it is only a short-term sticking plaster. As we move forward, we need to support our businesses and grow our economy. Will the Minister commit to undertaking an independent, root-and-branch…
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure (i) for her assessment of whether the A1 Junctions Phase 2 project is exposed to the legal or environmental vulnerabilities, identified in the A5 Western Transport Corridor scheme case; and (ii) to detail any factors that distinguish the A1 project from the A5 scheme, in legal…
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail any legal implications the A5 Western Transport Corridor scheme legal judgment and subsequent appeal, may have for the A1 Junctions Phase 2 project, given the latter's focus on road safety improvements on an existing strategic route.
UK-EU Customs Union That this Assembly recognises that both north–south and east–west trade are essential to the Northern Ireland economy; notes that the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union has recklessly and predictably resulted in new and unnecessary trade friction; reaffirms the importance of…
Does the Minister accept that the new barriers that will go up in April with the end of the Shared Prosperity Fund and its successor's capital/revenue split will directly undermine the social enterprise action plan? What action can she take to help organisations such as Stepping Stones in Lagan Valley that provide…
We get the blame from unionism for everything, which is hilarious across here. The figures show that there was 2·8% growth in Northern Ireland and 1·3% growth in the UK. The difference is our dual market access. Without it, those figures would not be there. Will he at least acknowledge that?
Minister, I appreciate that you do not want to answer questions about specific businesses, but I will give you an example, because rates are based on hypothetical turnover figures that LPS produces for what a business, such as a pub, can achieve. I am not getting at any businesses, because I want all to excel, but a…
I spoke to the sports bodies just before I came in here, and they did not get that guarantee. The Commonwealth Games are in six months' time, and we do not have secure funding for our athletes, coaches or support staff. They are being absolutely failed. Minister, you have spoken a lot over the past two weeks about…
I came into the Chamber to debate a motion on growing our economy. We have just had minutes upon minutes of constitutional nonsense. I was at the launch of the ESRI report; I went to that because I wanted to hear about and see the trends. Too often, we do not have evidence on which to base policy and have mature…
