There are Members in the Chamber who believe that, just because they are now elected representatives, their heinous terrorist acts and convictions are in some way justified. History records that the Nazis had a similar ideology. To get back to the substance of the issue, I ask the Minister what work is being done to…
FlaggedSectarianism, hate crime and community relationsCriteria met: Dog-whistle messaging, Controversy escalation.
To ask the Minister of Justice for her assessment of whether a £13.3 million investment in a new kitchen and café at Magilligan Prison is value for money.
The entire McMonagle saga has exposed serious failings in Sinn Féin's child safeguarding policies. What is even more concerning to the House is that the failure to notify the Assembly and return Mr McMonagle's security pass for the Building also compromised the Assembly's child safeguarding policy. Does the First…
I thank the junior Minister for her answer. In just the past 24 hours, the Yellow Door deli in my constituency closed its doors on Portadown high street, citing spiralling costs. That is not an isolated issue; it is happening in towns and villages across Northern Ireland. With that in mind, will the junior Minister…
On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I wish to raise a point of order under Standing Order 65, following last week's disturbing developments regarding child safeguarding and the former Sinn Féin press officer Mr Michael McMonagle. We have been made aware of his continued access to this very Building. Every answer that has…
To ask the Assembly Commission to detail (i) any MLAs that employed Michael McMonagle in the last five years; and (ii) which MLA signed off on Michael McMonagle's access to Parliament Buildings.
To ask the Minister of Health, following endorsement of NICE TA 943, hybrid closed loop systems for managing blood glucose levels in type 1 diabetes, as applicable in Northern Ireland, to detail (i) why a decision on its implementation has yet to be made; and (ii) when a decision will be made.
FDI is crucial to any local economy. On that point, I pay tribute to the dedicated members of staff at Invest NI who have delivered thousands of jobs and millions of pounds of investment into Northern Ireland over its many years of existence. The aspiration for regional balance is a noble principle, but as it is…
In the early hours of Sunday morning, Portadown lost one of its national assets: not a celebrity sports star or a celebrity businessman but a unique, warm and loveable character in Tony Kennoy. Tony came to Portadown many years ago, through the care system. He brought with him a smile and a laugh that very few people…
Tourism is important to our city. For buses to be able to bring tourists into the city and access hotels, it is important that DFI works in conjunction with private bus companies. I was informed today that DFI has put a ban on private bus companies allowing their passengers to get off at the Europa Hotel, which is…
I appreciate the Minister's update on the A1, which also travels through our constituency of Upper Bann. There are huge implications for life and safety along that route. The wider issue surrounding Hillsborough has been long in the press as to the severe traffic congestion that it faces, particularly as a rat run for…
Hypocrisy is never far from this place. We had a fresh dose today from Mr Sheehan. He questioned the priorities of an Education Minister who, since taking office, has hit the ground running in tackling the priorities that affect everyday citizens in Northern Ireland. Meeting over 70 schools since taking office, the…
FlaggedSectarianism, hate crime and community relationsCriteria met: Identity framing.
Mr Buckley asked the Minister for Infrastructure, whom he believes to be in fine form today, to explain in detail his Department's plans to alleviate serious congestion across Belfast and Northern Ireland, given the pleas that he might have heard on Cool FM this morning about congestion and roadworks in Belfast city…
To ask the First Minister and deputy First Minister for an update on actions taken in relation to the implementation of the findings of the High Street Task Force Delivering a 21st Century High Street report.
To ask the Minister for Communities to outline how much of an uptake there has been in Pension Credit applications since changes were announced to the eligibility criteria for Winter Fuel Payments.
Minister, you will know that school capital investment is crucial not only to local schools but their communities. My constituency of Upper Bann has a large cross-section of schools in which the investment is much needed, but the Minister will know that Portadown College has been of particular interest to me. Is the…
I thank the Member for giving way. His point about the layers and layers of bureaucracy further supports the Road Haulage Association's claim about a 30% drop in goods moved from GB to Northern Ireland. Suppliers are looking at this and saying that it is too burdensome for them to deal with. Does the Member agree that…
Minister, many of our Upper Bann constituents have faced foul-smelling and foul-tasting drinking water in recent days. You outlined how NI Water has said that the water is safe to drink. If, however, a constituent came to us and said that they smelled, for example, mould from a packet of ham or foul odours from a drum…
Another week in Labour la-la land. Another episode of 'Carry On Keir'. I thought that we were told that 'Things Can Only Get Better'. That tells me much about a Prime Minister who is more concerned about which donor will buy his latest designer suit or glasses than about dealing with the pressing priorities that…
FlaggedLegacy of the Troubles, victims and paramilitarismCriteria met: Sectarian or communal antagonism, Dog-whistle messaging.
There are many reasons why Casement Park has not been redeveloped, many of which have been outlined in the House today, but there are two parts to it. Like Lord Elliott, I am not against the redevelopment of Casement Park in line with adequate and fair funding, as was announced in 2011 for all the sporting codes. That…
Quality of Water Supply To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to outline what steps he will take in response to taste and odour issues affecting water supply in the Mid Ulster area and some areas of Portadown, Lurgan and Dungannon.
I thank the Minister for his answer. I want to be practical. One of the issues affecting farmers is the inflexibility surrounding a slurry season that opens on 15 October and closes on 31 January. With very unpredictable weather, to put it mildly, in Northern Ireland, that is simply not realistic for many farmers. It…
