Mr Eóin Tennyson: Assembly records
All of Mr Eóin Tennyson’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
I thank the Minister for her answer. What is her assessment of how the relative needs of her Department and the PSNI have been accounted for in the proposed needs-based factor from the UK Government?
Thank you, Minister. Given the significant public concern at the potential for those changes to cause traffic chaos, will you commit to engaging with the council urgently, before the changes take place?
Mr Tennyson asked the Minister for Infrastructure if he has had any engagement with the Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council on the proposed changes to traffic flow at Rathfriland Street and Scarva Street in Banbridge.
To ask the Minister for the Economy what discussions he has had with his Executive colleagues regarding the consistently high rates of economic inactivity.
To ask the Minister of Education whether he plans to increase the school bus provision for St John the Baptist's College, Portadown, for pupils travelling from the Maghery, Milltown and Columbkille areas.
The Alliance Party has consistently warned about the scale of the financial challenges facing the Executive. At every opportunity, we have challenged Westminster austerity, championed fair funding for Northern Ireland and called for proper investment in public services. As I said at Second Stage, the Budget process…
Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs
To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs for an update on his engagement with his counterparts in the UK and Ireland on the issue of water quality.
Minister, are you aware of any precedent for investment on such a scale being pulled or paused without consultation with the Executive? Do you agree that, for a Government who talk up their economic credentials, their behaviour over past days would put their Tory predecessors to shame?
Minister, on a number of occasions, you referred to a proposal that would mean that developers might contribute more. Will you put some meat on the bones of what that proposal would look like? Will you also consider an independent review of the funding and governance arrangements of NI Water as part of that work?
If that is the case, Minister, why did you support an amendment that removed from a motion a reference to the sustainability plan dealing with the cost of division?
Minister, the previous Government set a revenue-raising target of £113 million annually. Will you update the House on progress towards meeting the target?
Mr Tennyson asked the Minister of Finance whether she agrees that tackling the cost of division is key to placing public finances on a sustainable footing and, if so, what steps she is taking to assess and address that cost.
To ask the Minister of Education (i) for his assessment of the effectiveness of providing the Northern Ireland Childcare Subsidy payments in arrears; and (ii) whether there have been delays in providing these payments.
City and Growth Deals To ask the Minister of Finance for an update on discussions with the UK Government following their decision to pause City and Growth Deal funding.

I beg to move Thank you, Principal Deputy Speaker. Alliance has consistently warned that the Executive have inherited the worst set of financial circumstances in the history of devolution. Prolonged Westminster austerity, the economic damage of Brexit, a global pandemic, war in Ukraine and the cost-of-living crisis…
There is no doubt that our community and voluntary sector offers invaluable support to our society by helping to tackle economic, social and environmental challenges and often plugging gaps where government provision has fallen short. Yet, be it through the cuts imposed through the Secretary of State's punishment…
I thank the Member for giving way. The Member is effectively saying that the saga has been a wake-up call, and it has, but it has only been a wake-up call for those of you who have been asleep at the wheel. I make no apologies for reminding you of that.
