It is with disappointment that I rise to speak to a take-note motion instead of having the opportunity to scrutinise, debate or vote on whether the Assembly gives its consent to a legislative consent motion. That situation is due to the Finance Minister and his Department failing to follow the process in place. We…

I thank the Minister for his statement. It is good to see the 2024-25 out-turn meet the target of breaking even, as set out in the Executive restoration package. In fact, it resulted in some underspends. I have concerns over the reporting of estimates and the culture of over-projections. Last week, the Infrastructure…

When the announcement was made just over a month ago on access to water for the next 12 years, the fishing industry was devastated. Then, hand in hand, the fund was announced. It is a huge number — £360 million — for the fund, but it feels very like something that has been put out there to pacify the industry. Will…

I congratulate the Executive on hosting a successful British-Irish Council summit in Newcastle, which showcased the best of Northern Ireland in the heart of South Down, where the Mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea.

Minister, last year's Audit Office report on major capital projects outlined the fact that, at the outset of the A5 project, its cost was estimated at some £800 million, but, with the 10-year delay, it was projected to be £1·7 billion. Given the high value of the project, I expect that there was a significant…

I thank the Member for his answer. This has been a case of much concern, especially with events taking place in Parliament Buildings in the past number of weeks.

Thank you, Minister. Minister, there have been a couple cases in my constituency, recently, in which people have been moved and housed, and it has then come out, some time later, that there is a child sex offender living in the park, much to the alarm of local residents. Are you suggesting that, every time somebody…

I thank the Minister for her statement today. 'Managing Public Money Northern Ireland' sets out guidance on the proper handling of public money. As you set out in your statement, Minister, any direction by the board of Northern Ireland Water to overspend without prior agreement is technically a breach. It is clear…

I rise today with profound sadness to reflect on last week, which was a sad week for anyone in the United Kingdom who values life.
