  1. Debate contribution: Assembly Members (Remuneration Board) Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. How does he respond to the fact that, in the call for evidence, 69% of respondents disagreed or strongly disagreed that the board should have regard to salaries paid to Members in other jurisdictions? If the Member was so keen to hear my views, and I thank him for that, I refer him…

  2. Debate contribution: Assembly Members (Remuneration Board) Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Committee Business

    The Member is being kind in giving way. He talks about limiting the pool. I remind him that there are over 250,000 trade unionists in the North, so that is a lot of people for the Committee and the panel to choose from.

  3. Debate contribution: Assembly Members (Remuneration Board) Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way again. What is the Member's assessment of the fact that, in the call for evidence, 69% of respondents disagreed or strongly disagreed that the board should have regard to the salaries paid by legislatures in other jurisdictions?

  4. Debate contribution: Assembly Members (Remuneration Board) Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Committee Business

    Thank you. If former MLAs can sit on the board, how can the Member justify saying that such a board will be independent? If you stepped down as an MLA tomorrow, you could sit on it and set the pay of your colleagues. How is that independent?

  5. Debate contribution: Assembly Members (Remuneration Board) Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Committee Business

    The Ad Hoc Committee makes a recommendation that the board must have regard to the wider financial circumstances of the North. You would presume that those would be the same financial circumstances that mean that pensioners are sitting freezing in their homes during winter, the circumstances that led to 90,000…

  6. Debate contribution: UK Immigration Reforms: Impact on Northern Ireland

    • Matter of the Day

    Keir Starmer's announcement yesterday was divisive and disgraceful. I suspect that Nigel Farage and Reform UK were delighted with and were rubbing their hands at the use of Enoch Powell-style language, sticking the boot into migrants or people who are seeking asylum. Most of us, and certainly those in my party, knew…

  7. Debate contribution: International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia

    • Private Members' Business

    Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. Despite what the Minister has tried to say, the inhumane ban on puberty blockers is motivated mainly by right-wing transphobia. Some of the Executive parties, such as the DUP, that extended the ban on gender-affirming care indefinitely are openly hostile towards trans and…

  8. Debate contribution: International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia

    • Private Members' Business

    Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. It is important that the motion has been brought here to be heard today. Obviously, there are omissions in the motion, hence my amendment, but it is important that the House takes a stand against rising transphobia and other forms of hate and division. Despite a crisis in our…

  9. Debate contribution: For Women Scotland Ltd v The Scottish Ministers

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I condemn the threats towards you, deputy First Minister. Violence or threats of violence towards anybody are disgraceful and wrong, whoever the person is. Given that the BMA stated that the Supreme Court ruling is "biologically nonsensical" and "scientifically illiterate", do you think that we should listen to the…
