  1. Debate contribution: Clerical Child Abuse

    • Private Members' Business

    First and foremost, our thoughts are with all victims and survivors of clerical abuse. That abuse was a profound betrayal, and, for many, the harm was compounded by silence, denial and institutional failure over many years. Those responsible occupied positions of authority and trust and used that power to shield…

  2. Debate contribution: Clerical Child Abuse

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for taking an intervention. Does he agree that the dioceses, particularly around Milltown, need to work with families and those who are trying to find the remains of their loved ones? Those people were somebody in their lives, even if they were not somebody to those institutions.

  3. Debate contribution: Pension Schemes Bill: Legislative Consent Motion

    • Executive Committee Business

    Notwithstanding the issues outlined by the Committee Chair, I will take the opportunity to say that it is important that we get these measures in place. I have placed on the record before that I welcome the Minister's work in the area, specifically on early access to pensions for those who are terminally ill. That is…

  4. Debate contribution: North/South Ministerial Council: Health and Food Safety

    • Ministerial Statement

    I thank the Minister for his statement. I am really happy to hear that conversations were had about children, both in death and in life. Can he give the House any update on the paediatric pathology services that were discussed at the meeting, as well as on rare diseases? I think specifically about an issue on which I…

  5. Debate contribution: Artificial Intelligence and Online Violence Against Women and Girls

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for giving way, particularly as she has already done so. She says that we would not blame victims and would not disbelieve them. However, does the Member agree that the problem is that victims, whether they are victims of physical abuse, sexual or domestic violence or AI abuse, are not believed, are…

  7. Debate contribution: Economic Trends on the Island of Ireland

    • Private Members' Business

    Does the Member agree that, while he may not agree with our position on issues, the public trust us and that that is why they voted for us? Most of us in the Chamber were voted for to be here, so we are the people whom the public trust.

  9. Debate contribution: Committee for Standards and Privileges Report: Ministerial Response

    • Questions for Urgent Oral Answer

    Therefore, the report carries legal weight. You do not have to say, "I agree with everything in it", but, for once in your life, will you just accept that you were wrong?

  10. Debate contribution: Committee for Standards and Privileges Report: Ministerial Response

    • Questions for Urgent Oral Answer

    Having previously sat on the Committee on Standards and Privileges, I assume that the commissioner took legal advice on her report.

  15. Debate contribution: Committee for Standards and Privileges Report: Ministerial Response

    • Questions for Urgent Oral Answer

    The tone of the whole conversation is sad. If it happened in the town that I represent, as a community leader, I would ask the council to open the leisure centre. I would bring the people who had been driven out of their homes by violent thugs to the leisure centre and make sure that they were safe while they were…

  16. Debate contribution: Limavady Town Centre: Redevelopment

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I am certain that you are well capable of doing your job, Mr Speaker. If you were not content with my tone during Question Time, you would have held me to account. Is it in order for the Whip of the party opposite to repeatedly tell a Member, in the middle of her question, to "calm…

  19. Debate contribution: Local Growth Fund: Community and Voluntary Sector

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his answer. Minister, given that you and your party were such great advocates of Brexit, which lost us — sorry, not "us" but local community groups and voluntary organisations — all European funding —. You can roll your eyes all you want, but those groups and organisations are the ones that…

  20. Debate contribution: Waiting Lists: Effect on Winter Preparedness

    • Private Members' Business

    Does the Member agree that it is good to hear about the reduction in ambulance handover times in some trusts? I am concerned that the Southern Trust is not mentioned in those figures. The Committee needs to understand what has led to those reductions and why they cannot be replicated across all the trusts or whether…

  22. Debate contribution: Waiting Lists: Effect on Winter Preparedness

    • Private Members' Business

    I welcome the opportunity to speak in the debate and to address the issues raised in the motion. No one in the Chamber denies the immense pressure being experienced by patients and staff in our emergency departments. Those pressures are real, visible and must be addressed. It is important that the debate reflects…

  23. Debate contribution: Waiting Lists: Effect on Winter Preparedness

    • Private Members' Business

    I appreciate the Member's giving way. Does he agree that we need to put in place the real living wage for care workers as soon as possible in order to address some of the issues that he has just outlined?

  24. Debate contribution: Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann

    • Opposition Business

    I thank the Member for taking the intervention. It is on exactly that point about its being rooted in our communities. I am sure that you will agree that we should commend all the branches of Comhaltas across this island and further afield that feed into the fleadh. I specifically namecheck Coalisland Clonoe Comhaltas.

  25. Debate contribution: Victims’ Groups: Payments

    First Minister, in line with what you just said about victims, can you give us some details and provide an update on the victims' payments scheme and also provide some detail on the type of support that is available for victims in order to help them with the trauma that they suffered, including the victims whom the…
