All of Ms Emma Sheerin’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the training that social workers working in Health and Social Care Trusts receive in relation to coercive control.
I am glad that we stand together today in response to some of the worst days that we have seen in our society recently. It is important that we do so to send a strong message that we are united against hatred, racism and Islamophobia and that love and hope will prevail over hate. It is important that we send a message…
Opposition to Racism That this Assembly condemns the criminal damage and targeting of businesses in recent days; rejects all forms of Islamophobia, xenophobia and racism; endorses the work of voluntary sector organisations combatting racism and supporting those impacted by it; recognises the work of the Police Service…
To ask the Minister of Health to detail any changes that have been made to the remit or role of carers employed by families via direct payments, with specific reference to the administration of medicines.
Thanks, Minister, for that commitment. Some classrooms in Holy Family Primary School have been in operation since 1890. Generations of families have used the same classrooms, and grandparents were in the same building as their grandchildren are now. In the interim, if it is not a new build straight away, could we see…
Ms Sheerin asked the Minister of Education, having written to him recently about Holy Family Primary School, Magherafelt, and having been contacted by its principal, whether he will consider a new build at the site, which the school has been requesting for a number of years.
To ask the Minister for the Economy for an update on any action his Department is taking in relation to the potential takeover bid of Spirit Aerosystems by Boeing.
Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as a fhreagra. As you outlined, Minister, community transport is vital, particularly for the most vulnerable and marginalised in rural communities. Will you provide detail on your plans for increasing the accessibility and sustainability of community transport?
Ms Sheerin asked the Minister for Infrastructure to give a commitment that funding for community transport will not be cut in light of the 2024-25 Budget?
In that context, do you agree that it is really important for Invest NI and the Executive to maximise and focus on the benefits and opportunities that come from dual market access?
Ms Sheerin asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister, given the recent Ulster Bank survey that showed the sharpest rise in orders for the first time in two years, to join her in welcoming that good news, which indicates that our local economy and, in particular, our private sector are growing.
Go raibh maith agat, a LeasCheann Comhairle. I support the motion and welcome the opportunity for the debate. Obviously, a similar motion was supported by the House in April 2021, so we know its position on harmful conversion therapy, and we know that the majority of MLAs in the Chamber support a ban, which is to be…
To ask the Minister of Health to outline what action his Department is taking to deliver the New Decade, New Approach commitment to fund three cycles of IVF treatment.
Gabhaim buíochas leis an Chéad-Aire as an fhreagra sin. First Minister, you have outlined the need for a total and unequivocal ceasefire. Do you agree that the Irish state's eventual recognition of the Palestinian state is a very good first step and a historic moment in our support for the Palestinian people?
Minister, thank you again for your renewed commitment to ensuring the provision of services for victims and survivors. May I ask for an update on the victims' payments scheme, please?
I rise on a somewhat bittersweet note to congratulate STEPS, a mental health charity in my area, on its 12th anniversary. STEPS was founded almost 12 years ago — it is having a celebration at the end of this week — to address the epidemic that we have in our area. At that time, Draperstown was the suicide capital of…
Ms Sheerin asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister whether the First Minister agrees that Israel’s barbaric attack on a refugee camp full of displaced Palestinians was another example of why there needs to be a complete and total ceasefire in Palestine, given that she will have seen over the weekend the…
To ask the First Minister and deputy First Minister to detail the community organisations in the Mid Ulster constituency that have received funding from their Department in the current Assembly mandate.
Can the junior Minister advise how the recently developed framework to end violence against women and girls will help deal with the immediate pressures and challenges?
I support and welcome the motion. It is important for us all as MLAs to take stock of what we want to see achieved in the mandate and to set out our priorities clearly. Obviously, a Programme for Government is fundamental to that. At the beginning of the session, in February, we were in a challenging situation. We are…
