  1. Debate contribution: Mental Health Services: Mid Ulster

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his answer. Several people in Mid Ulster followed advertisements on television — that is the right thing to do — and reached out but did not get the help that they needed: help came too late. Further to the answer that you gave me, have there been any improvements in the past number of months,…

  2. Debate contribution: Executive Approval Threshold

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Given the comments that we have heard in court, and to follow on from John's question, which raised that point, is there any indication that the Minister will bring the matter to the Executive table? That is the place to sort out such things and have everybody in the Executive agree them, rather than take them through…

  3. Debate contribution: Northern Ireland Community Infrastructure Fund

    • Ministerial Statement

    Obviously, the scheme will cover rural and urban halls. In the past, a previous AERA Minister supported 113 rural halls. I questioned the Minister yesterday in the Chamber, and he indicated that he was having conversations with you about supporting the fund. Do you see the AERA Minister putting his hand in his pocket…

  4. Written question AQW 32391/22-27

    • Department for Infrastructure

    To ask the Minister for Infrastructure (i) to detail how she will address the shortfall in structural road maintenance funding; and (ii) for her assessment of the Mineral Products Association Northern Ireland report that the shortfall could lead to (a) more than 500 skilled workers and apprentices losing their jobs;…

  5. Debate contribution: Pollution of Waterways: Northern Ireland Water

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, we have heard the magic numbers of 62/24/12 from agriculture, sewage and septic tanks respectively. Can you provide evidence for those numbers, or were they part of a desktop exercise to point the finger at the industries involved?

  6. Debate contribution: Rural Community Halls: Funding

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Thank you, Minister, for your answer. You rightly referenced the scheme that Minister Lyons launched last week. Your predecessor launched a rural community halls scheme, which supported 113 halls. Do you envisage giving financial support to Minister Lyons to do more with his scheme, bearing in mind that it takes in…

  7. Topical question AQT 1593/22-27

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Mr K Buchanan asked the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs why he is letting the agriculture sector be vilified for the pollution of our waterways, given that, over the last number of months, the Member has witnessed and seen on social media NI Water failures directly related to waterways, as has…

  8. Debate contribution: Water, Sustainable Drainage and Flood Management Bill: Second Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Yes. It is related to farms. Farms have a metered supply, and they are allowed to offset a percentage of their costs against their domestic usage. How will you square the circle of somebody having a domestic house on a farm? How do you define the hosepipe ban there? Ultimately, they are paying for water but have a…

  9. Debate contribution: Water, Sustainable Drainage and Flood Management Bill: Second Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    My comments will be short. First, I congratulate my colleague, Peter, who is taking up the Committee Chair. Deborah is probably watching. I do not know which camera to wave at — normally, we get an indication — but I wish her well, and I wish Peter well. I have only two brief comments. A lot of the issues have been…

  10. Debate contribution: Road Maintenance Strategy

    • Private Members' Business

    Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. I do not intend to take all that time. I will briefly run through some of the comments that Members have made, and put in my own bits and pieces during that. First, Stephen touched on road safety's being compromised by different issues, such as potholes etc. He talked about road freight's…

  11. Debate contribution: Road Maintenance Strategy

    • Private Members' Business

    Just a quick point on that, Minister. I read from my notes that, in the previous financial year, approximately £8 million was paid out for 4,615 claims due to potholes. Have you any way of looking at it and saying, "Right, if we do x, we will save on that to a degree"? Is there any way of reducing that? Are you…

  12. Debate contribution: Active Travel Spend

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, active travel schemes are obviously to be welcomed. How will you get the balance with new schemes and keeping existing footpaths clear? There are loads of footpaths in my constituency that people cannot even walk on, yet I see new ones being built to nowhere — literally nowhere. How will you get that balance…

  13. Member's statement: Orange Victims Day

    • Members' Statements

    I stand to reflect on 1 September, Orange Victims Day. The date was picked due to the horrendous crime that took place on 1 September 1975, when five innocent men were slaughtered in Tullyvallen Orange Hall, 50 years ago last week. At the weekend, I attended an event in the Apprentice Boys Hall in Londonderry, which…
