  1. Debate contribution: Holiday Hunger and the High Cost of School Uniforms

    • Private Members' Business

    I appreciate the Member giving way. It is slightly facetious, but the point that I made to his colleague was that, while you have repeated the mantra that there is no money, corporate profits are at a record high, and if you really wanted to fund universal free school meals, you could do it with measures. That is the…

  2. Debate contribution: Holiday Hunger and the High Cost of School Uniforms

    • Private Members' Business

    As has been said, at the start of the pandemic, the North introduced holiday hunger payments with a cash-first approach, which gave struggling families some dignity and control over their finances during school holidays. Despite some of the counterpoints, tackling poverty is not complicated. Over 100,000 children…

  3. Debate contribution: Holiday Hunger and the High Cost of School Uniforms

    • Private Members' Business

    Leaving aside the obvious moral benefits of universal access to free school meals, does the Member agree that an economic saving could be made because it would prevent children from having to go to dentists, A&E and so on and that, therefore, even in that limited context, it has benefits?

  4. Debate contribution: Belfast International Airport: US Military Flights

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister. I appreciate that you may not have the information, but what have you and your officials done to get it? There can be no passing of the buck, given that airports fall under your remit. What have you and your Department done to get information about what is on those planes? There is serious public…

  5. Debate contribution: Racist Incidents

    • Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. I agree with her point about deprivation. Going back to her comment about genuinely held concerns, does she agree that that strategy and comment often help to feed racism, meaning that people think that it is OK or legitimate to bash migrants or asylum seekers? Does she agree that…

  6. Debate contribution: Racist Incidents

    • Committee Business

    I support the motion, but I feel that it is a bit too little too late. It is also worth saying that the Executive's disapproval of racist violence did not force the far right and loyalist forces off the streets this summer. They were forced off the streets this summer by organised counter-mobilisations of tens of…

  7. Member's statement: US Presidential Election

    • Members' Statements

    I want to disassociate myself from all the positive platitudes that have been meted out to Donald Trump on his re-election to the White House. Trump is a racist, sexist bigot who gives a damn only about himself and the American ruling class. Ministers in this Building should not operate a cosy, business-as-usual…

  8. Topical question AQT 742/22-27

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Mr Carroll asked the Minister for the Economy, having tried to ask five different Ministers about the use of US military planes at Belfast International Airport and having written to him and given that, to his knowledge, there having been at least 24 landings and departures of US military planes in the past few months…
