I thank the Minister for giving way. Minister, you outlined how difficult it will be for anything to happen in the immediate future, but, as I said in my contribution, there are perhaps some things that we can do to increase traffic flow in the short term. Will you task your officials with looking into the frequency…
I thank the Minister for giving way. We know that the roads are in a terrible condition and that funding is much needed, regardless of where you are in Northern Ireland, but I give her this scenario: statistics show that the area between Lurgan and Craigavon Area Hospital is in the worst state that it has ever been in…
I thank the Member for giving way. He has made an important point, but it is not just there. The wider Bocombra area has become a wonderful location for young families that have moved into it. Their concern stretches further in that the opening of an access point to the hospital through Lisnisky Lane would,…
First, I thank my constituency colleague Doug Beattie for securing the Adjournment debate. It is a very important debate about a strategic asset located at the heart of our constituency, particularly for those from Portadown who live daily with the traffic implications around the hospital. This is significant. We are…
Minister Muir has been a leading cheerleader for the Northern Ireland protocol, which binds Northern Ireland to the EU single market and customs area, so I suspect that he fully understands its consequences. When the Minister mentions the exclusion of Northern Ireland, does he know whether the protocol that he…
I thank the Minister for giving way and, in particular, for talking about some of the local companies that are doing excellent work in the field. It is important, therefore, that we also look at some of the challenges that they have faced. I think particularly of the gas-blending example in Granville. Many businesses…
I thank the Member for giving way. It is great to hear the Member's excitement about the motion. He has given two clear, compelling reasons for why he believes that Ballymena should be the hub for hydrogen. Perhaps I can suggest a third: is it the fact that the Member represents North Antrim, of which Ballymena is at…
I thank the Member for giving way. It is an interesting example that she raises about our domestic ratepayers and, indeed, homeowners. Does the Member agree that there is also a huge opportunity for local businesses to tap into some of that production and that there is a real opportunity, in the forthcoming Bill about…
I thank the Member for giving way. In case there is an attempt to misrepresent, I clarify that my argument was that, to enable us to benefit from green hydrogen, we must tap in to the funding streams that are available, therefore through UK Government funding. Beyond that, the world is our oyster. I am for being a…
I beg to move Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. Today, I move a motion that, I trust, will set Northern Ireland on the path to becoming a global leader in green hydrogen technology, a path that harnesses the potential of hydrogen to transform our energy landscape and create high-quality, sustainable jobs in…
To appoint forensic accountants to such a significant arm's-length body as NI Water is a serious step, Minister. When did you communicate to NI Water your intention to do so? Without getting into detail on specifics, is the Minister or her Department aware of any potentially fraudulent activity that might have caused…
I suspect that every Member has experienced the grief of losing a loved one. They may have experienced holding the hand of a parent, child or friend in their dying moments. They will have had the painful task of arranging a funeral. I suspect — I know — that there are Members in the House who have had the painful…
Uncertain: weak signalLegacy of the Troubles, victims and paramilitarism
When discussing legacy and its impact on police recruitment, will the Minister give her assessment of the disgraceful conduct of the Police Ombudsman, Mrs Anderson? Despite numerous requests from my colleague the Chair of the Justice Committee, Joanne Bunting, she continues to hold up a report on the Kingsmills…
Large-scale infrastructure projects appear to go to your Department to drown in delay and multiply in cost, so, as a newly appointed Minister, what confidence do you have that your Department can bring projects from concept to reality and provide good, affordable bureaucracy and costings for the taxpayer?
On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I welcome the fact that the factually inaccurate motion from the constructive Opposition is not being moved today. How was it that such a grossly inaccurate motion made it into the Order Paper in the first place? Further to that point of order, Mr Speaker. Was a formal apology issued…
