  1. Debate contribution: Budget Discussions

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    First Minister, I am slightly in shock that we are relying on Keir Starmer, a man whose Government are in shambles and a man who does not know whether he will be in the job by the summer, to guarantee public services for the people of Northern Ireland. I agree with you and your colleagues that we want as much money as…

  2. Debate contribution: Public-sector Transformation Fund: Tranche 2

    • Ministerial Statement

    Minister, a very important milestone would be setting a Budget. While many of the allocations that you have just announced are welcome and, I am sure, noble in intent, others will ask interrogatory questions about them. You have announced a £100 million allocation today while tens of billions of pounds of public…

  3. Topical question AQT 2371/22-27

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Mr O'Toole asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister, having pointed out that, after last year's riots in Ballymena and Larne, she was clear that politicians needed to stand against racism and be careful about their language and even said that the Communities Minister should consider his position, which the…

  4. Debate contribution: Domestic Electricity Support

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, whether it is AME —. In response to your colleague, you talked about budget inflexibility from the Treasury, and Stephen Dunne asked about a bid to the Executive. Is it not the truth that all of this is academic if there is not an agreed Executive Budget? Your Executive and the Finance Minister have failed…

  5. Member's statement: Budget 2026-29/2030

    • Members' Statements

    In the past few minutes, we have heard important contributions on a range of topics that are relevant to individual constituencies and important for our constituents. There is nothing wrong with that, but what we should be talking about today and every day until a Budget is agreed is the absence of that Budget.…

  6. Debate contribution: Cervical Screening Programme: Atherton Report

    • Question for Urgent Oral Answer

    On a point of order, Mr Speaker. It would be helpful if you could give some guidance on the matter of when we will be able to debate further the Budget, the absence of which is becoming a slow-running crisis in this place. During Question Time today, the Minister for Communities confirmed, I believe, that funding for…

  7. Debate contribution: Home Heating Oil Support

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, I welcome the additional detail that you have given us. We have never been churlish about the home heating oil support package — it was a welcome, if belated, step from the Executive — so I welcome the fact that it exists. However, Brent crude still costs more than $100 a barrel — the price for 900 litres is…

  8. Debate contribution: Northern Ireland Water: Lough Neagh

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, hundreds of people protested at the lough shore yesterday, including our party leader and my colleague Patsy McGlone. There is a real sense that, despite all the talk about Lough Neagh and whether the source of the pollution is water or agriculture — clearly, both have contributed to the decay of the…

  9. Debate contribution: Constitutional Change

    • Opposition Business

    Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. Thank you to everybody who participated in the debate. Perhaps predictably, when we debate issues in the Chamber, even if they are framed in way that is hopeful and positive and does not fall down along what might be called traditional, tribal framing lines, that framing is…

  10. Debate contribution: Constitutional Change

    • Opposition Business

    This is a really important point for me personally and for our party. Do you accept that issues around communal designation and identity are not exactly the same as constitutional positions? That conflation is really pernicious. Do you understand that it is possible to take a position on the constitution without that…

  11. Debate contribution: Constitutional Change

    • Opposition Business

    I beg to move It is important that, as the official Opposition, we acknowledge that the motion does not completely relate to the business of the Northern Ireland Executive. Others will probably say that it does not relate to the day-to-day business of the Northern Ireland Executive. I will throw that back across the…

  12. Member's statement: Fusiliers John McCaig, Joseph McCaig and Dougald McCaughey

    • Members' Statements

    On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I ask you to look at Mr Gaston's remarks during his Member's statement and reflect on whether they violate the Standing Order on unparliamentary language, specifically the comparison that he made when speaking about the Irish Language Commissioner, which, I think, far exceeds…
