  3. Motion or amendment: Conducting a Cost-Benefit Analysis of Net Zero Policies

    • Motion · Private Members' Motion

    Conducting a Cost-Benefit Analysis of Net Zero Policies That this Assembly expresses deep concern that aspirational climate targets are impeding the delivery of high-quality public services and infrastructure that ratepayers deserve; notes that the provisions of the Climate Change Act (Northern Ireland) 2022 have been…

  7. Debate contribution: Independent Environmental Protection Agency

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. There have been accusations that the DUP does not care about our constituents or, indeed, the environment. What would the Member say to the constituents who have been caught up in environmental climate change madness — climate change amendments from his party and, indeed, the Members…

  14. Debate contribution: Independent Environmental Protection Agency

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Minister for giving way. Will he clear up some confusion? Is the Alliance Party's position that it supports all the commitments in New Decade, New Approach? Any independent observer would say that it has reneged on and undermined other key commitments, such as the UK Government's commitment to ensuring…

  16. Debate contribution: Independent Environmental Protection Agency

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. My definition of a quango is an organisation that has no direct political oversight from those who have been democratically elected, is funded with inordinate amounts of public money and is wasteful.

  17. Debate contribution: Independent Environmental Protection Agency

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. He is absolutely right to highlight the failure from the Alliance Party, and particularly the Minister, to properly fund and hold accountable the agencies that are already in place. Does he agree that there is more than a growing suspicion that the Minister is deliberately running…

  18. Debate contribution: Parliament Buildings: For Women Scotland Ltd v The Scottish Ministers

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    It is ridiculous that, in this Building of all buildings, a policy that allows biological men to enter biological females' toilets continues to operate. Did the Commission receive legal advice on the Supreme Court ruling? If so, did that advice recommend the status quo or change?

  19. Debate contribution: Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme (Amendment) (Extension to Maritime Activities) Order 2026

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Minister for giving way. During the debate, we heard, initially from Miss McIlveen, about the hard-won exemptions that were secured by the Scottish Government for consumers and businesses. The Minister has outlined how there is to be a partial 50% exemption here, compared with the Scottish Government's…

  21. Debate contribution: Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme (Amendment) (Extension to Maritime Activities) Order 2026

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. At least he has the bravery to do so, unlike his colleague from South Antrim. The Member said that the draft Order protects Northern Ireland hauliers and consumers, yet the evidence, including in representations from said hauliers, shows that it will damage their business model in…

  23. Debate contribution: Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme (Amendment) (Extension to Maritime Activities) Order 2026

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. She makes a valid point. It is interesting that Sinn Féin seems to have bent the knee to UK Government pressure in this regard. Does she agree that the potential 6% increase in haulier costs to Northern Ireland from GB places additional pressure on a sector that has already been…

  24. Debate contribution: Recycling: Economic Benefits

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, if there is one thing that our constituents and, indeed, local ratepayers do not want, it is further interference from central government in their bin collections, which are already suboptimal in many locations. Do you accept that many councils are doing a fine job in setting recycling targets for waste that…

  25. Debate contribution: First Minister and deputy First Minister Titles

    • Opposition Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. The Member cannot accuse Members on this Bench of having a go at him and his party when he has had a go at everybody else the whole way through this contribution.
