Ms Kate Nicholl: Assembly records
All of Ms Kate Nicholl’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not qualifying, uncertain or not yet analysed.
I thank the Opposition for tabling the motion, which we support. As everyone has mentioned, in our constituency offices we see just how much people are struggling. They really need to see the Assembly taking the issue seriously and treating it with the energy that is usually reserved for issues that we disagree on.…
On Sunday, St Brigid's won the Antrim Senior Football Championship for the first time in the club's history, beating O'Donovan Rossa at Corrigan Park. I congratulate the team, the committee, the management and every volunteer who made it happen. The win was almost 30 years in the making. There was a great write-up in…
Regulation of the Costs of Home Heating Oil To ask the Minister for the Economy, following her discussions with the Competition and Markets Authority, the Utility Regulator and departmental officials, for an update on the regulation of the costs of home heating oil.
I had some comments prepared about the legislation and what is needed, but that has been covered. I will start by thanking the Opposition for tabling the motion. Some of the leaders of our black community are in the Gallery, and I thank them for their leadership and courage and for speaking out. I know that what…
I thank the Minister for her response. The works at the Four Winds roundabout have been extremely disruptive to the school run, to businesses, which are losing money, and to bus services. How can the Minister's Department hold developers to account to make sure that the works are delivered in a timely fashion?…
I apologise. I think that I was thrown by the Minister's identifying himself as a "social justice" advocate. That is good news to hear, because our view is very much that putting two-year-olds in nursery settings is not the right place to spend £5 million of a constrained budget. What will the childcare strategy…
To ask the Minister of Education to detail a breakdown of any costs associated with TransformED, broken down by (i) area of spend; and (ii) financial year.
To ask the Minister of Education to detail whether his Department intends to undertake any evaluation or feedback process with (i) school leaders; and (ii) teachers, about the resources provided for the TransformED School Development Day on 25 September 2026.
When I was doing some outreach in South Belfast on Saturday, people kept saying that they were so despairing and were having to explain things that had happened in the past to their children and young people. As the joint First Minister, with the remit for children and young people, will you outline what you are…
I hope that no one who is listening is confused: medical treatment for two Gazan children is not the reason that we have energy problems in Northern Ireland. I chair the all-party group (APG) on international development, and what strikes me is that, in the media and in politics, the issue is sometimes viewed as a…
The Member is deliberately misrepresenting what I said. My question was as follows. Given that there are things in the Bible that can be taken in different contexts, such as sowing different types of seeds together or not doing anything on a Saturday or a Sunday, there are all sorts of things that may not apply to one…
I thank the Member for giving way. I always think that it is interesting when people quote specific parts of the Bible because there are all sorts of parts in the Bible that can be taken out of context and actually advocate some quite strange things that are outdated now. However, one constant in the Bible is…
I congratulate you, Mr Speaker, on the birth of your granddaughter Esther last week. I want to talk about children. I spent last week in the children's hospital at the Royal with my son, and I thank everyone for their comments and good wishes. There is nothing quite as humbling as being in the children's ward and…
I did not know Paul Butler, but I know that he was a friend and colleague to people with whom we work in the Assembly and that he served as a councillor and an MLA. I am minded of when Anna Lo passed away and of how much it meant to me when people stood up and shared their sympathies. On behalf of the Alliance Party,…
To ask the Minister for the Economy whether her Department holds any data on the number of Northern Ireland domiciled students, who graduate from universities outside of Northern Ireland and who subsequently return to live here, within 10 years of graduating.
To ask the Minister for the Economy to detail any consideration she is giving to working with higher and further education institutions to develop specific qualifications in careers teaching.
