I thank the Minister for his statement. As other Members have stated, the First Minister spoke publicly about the £150 million secured for pay awards, including £37 million for teachers. However, in the Finance Minister's statement, he states that the Education Minister will receive £25·6 million for teachers' pay,…

I thank the Minister for her response. Although the FE sector is facing a difficult budgetary landscape, NWRC has been able to punch above its weight.

I thank the Member for giving way. The Member mentioned my comments and the Minister's comments. Will the Member agree that it would have been better for the proposer of the motion to have listened entirely to the Minister's response, rather than leaving the Chamber to do a media interview?

I welcome the opportunity to speak on the motion. I do not think that there is a single Member who does not want to see our children healthy, well fed and ready to learn. We all recognise the statistics before us: 13% of children live in food-insecure households. We understand that nutritious food is the fuel for…

The savings proposals from the EA, alongside the stark financial position that faces the Minister's Department, will rightly draw concern. It is not enough for Members to simply stand and point out the problems without ever coming forward with a single solution. What support has the Minister received from his…

I welcome the opportunity to speak on the motion. It is unfortunate that Sinn Féin Members in particular have sought to refight some of the battles that they have already lost. That having been said, we need to focus on the issues that matter to people in my constituency and across Northern Ireland, which include…

The car-crash contributions from the SDLP leader and the People Before Profit MLA on the 'The Nolan Show' this morning exposed the true anti-Israeli sentiment towards your visit to Israel.

Minister, you gave no answer whatever about the republican memorial that is near your constituency office.

If so, what did you say?
