Mr Jonathan Buckley: Assembly records
All of Mr Jonathan Buckley’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 Member for giving way. Does he agree that there is serious concern about the LCM before us today? It refers only to symptoms and has a singular focus on enforcement; it does not mention root causes, which is what he is referring to. Although there may be enforcement powers, they are so limited in scope…
Given that the Justice Minister met the Republic of Ireland's Migration Minister, what robust discussions were had on to the number of people arriving in Northern Ireland illegally via the Republic of Ireland? Was she made aware of the number who are arriving via plane, with officials disregarding their…
I speak in support of the Chinook Justice Campaign and the families who have fought for truth and accountability for more than 30 years. On 2 June 1994, a Chinook helicopter crashed into the Mull of Kintyre in Scotland, killing all 29 people on board. Among the passengers were 25 highly trained and dedicated British…
Minister, quite often, those buildings could be put to really good use for local communities. I have engaged with your Department, albeit through the EA, on a number of examples. It is a sad reflection on the EA that, sometimes, the length of time taken means that those buildings fall into significant disrepair. Does…
Like all those who spoke before me in the Chamber, I condemn, utterly, the violence that took place on our streets last week. The violent scenes on our streets are not who we are as a people. There is and has always been an alternative to violence. I must say that the violent scenes have served to overshadow the…

Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I declare an interest, as I have family members who work right across the agriculture sector. I pay tribute to my colleague Michelle McIlveen, who, despite some of the accusations in the Chamber about the intentions behind the motion, has always been a champion and friend…
What the Minister is outlining is trade divergence rather than potential. The Minister has talked about "privileged, dual market access": we are now six years on from hearing of the unicorn of dual market access from the Minister and her party. Will she give one concrete example of FDI in Northern Ireland that is due…
In politics come priorities, and, in light of tomorrow's comprehensive spending review announcement, many examples of priorities have been cited in this place. We can all smell the burning rubber as the Chancellor makes a handbrake turn on many of the taxes that she imposed on the people of the United Kingdom last…
Deputy First Minister, you are aware of the huge concern across the United Kingdom in particular with regard to illegal immigration, given the strain on social services, housing and hospitals. Were you reassured by the Government's response in their conversations about the White Paper that those issues will be…
Thank you, Mr Speaker. As a Member for Upper Bann, I mark the passing of an incredible and remarkable man: Hilbert Willis. Hilbert was 101 years old. A football fanatic and loyal-to-the-core supporter of Loughgall Football Club, his life was one that was well and truly lived. He described himself as an "all-round…
To ask the Minister of Health to detail any (i) clinical (ii) logistical; and (iii) financial, barriers that are preventing wider availability of self-injecting medications for patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the amount spent on (i) management consultants; and (ii) external advisory services, in each of the last five years, broken down by Health and Social Care Trust.
To ask the Minister of Health for his assessment of the annual cost of language translation services including (i) face-to-face translation; and (ii) telephone interpreting, across all Health and Social Care Trusts.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the progress made in integrating digital and technological solutions to reduce cost burdens and increase efficiency across the health service.
First Minister, with tens of millions of pounds of projected overspend on the original cost of the redevelopment of Casement Park and with public infrastructure and public services under serious financial strain, which public services would you cut to ensure Casement Park's redevelopment on the scale that the GAA…
On a point of order, Mr Speaker. Would it be appropriate for me to receive the exact words that Mr Blair found so offensive? I have not one clue about what on earth he has just said.
This watery two-page statement says to me that there continues to be zero self-awareness from the Minister about the huge pressure and strain facing agriculture in Northern Ireland. When he was discussing environmental work schemes, was there any consideration of the thousands of jobs that are at risk from his…
