— and Benjamin Franklin, were, by definition, republicans. They believed in a democracy with citizens independent under the law. They did not believe in Donald Trump and the autocracy that he is building. Will you guarantee that public money will be spent celebrating not the corrupt Donald Trump but the historical…
Minister, I strongly support celebrating the contribution of people from all over this island, including the Scots Irish — the Ulster Scots — to the United States. However, it is important to be clear on a couple of historical points. No one migrated from Northern Ireland, because it did not exist in the 18th century.…
Irish Presidency of the Council of the European Union That this Assembly notes that Ireland will hold the Presidency of the Council of the European Union from July 2026; recognises that this presents a significant strategic opportunity for Northern Ireland, including in addressing ongoing practical issues arising from…
To ask the First Minister and deputy First Minister whether they have had any meetings with the leader of the DUP, regarding the budget scrutiny exercise agreed with the UK Government, as part of the reserve claim.
To ask the Minister of Finance to detail the reason why he has not made a statement relating to the budget scrutiny exercise agreed with the UK Government, as part of the reserve claim announced on 11 February 2026.

There are huge challenges, including in my constituency, with loyalist flags and posters that go up. The problem is that the conversation that Colm Gildernew…
Minister, will you confirm, first, that any children from Northern Ireland who would have participated in the trial would have done so only on the basis of their consent and that of their parents? Secondly, will you confirm that it would have been a tiny number of children? Thirdly, does he agree that there is an…
On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I briefly draw Members' attention to the fact that, during questions to the First Minister and the deputy First Minister, the First Minister challenged me for asking a question that she said was outside the jurisdiction of the Executive Office and instead related to a party decision.…
Minister, the strategy is called 'Rethinking Our Resources' and relates to the circular economy. I am afraid that your Department has been doing a lot of thinking, and it feels like it is going round in circles. People in Four Winds and Carryduff in my constituency have been told for years by Lisburn and Castlereagh…
First, I get about two questions once a month, so I will ask you about issues that pertain to wider questions, including decisions that your party has made. It has nothing to do with the British Government; it was a vote taken in the European Parliament by your colleagues, including on the subject of civil and…
Thank you, Minister. First, I associate myself and my party with the Minister's words on the sad passing of Mr Beattie, the director. Clearly, that was very sad news for his family and colleagues. Was the connected European social fund, which was used to fund economic inactivity, then became the Shared Prosperity Fund…
Mr O'Toole asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister, in light of the fact that the Executive Office is responsible for Ukrainian refugees here, and after noting that the First Minister's party and Donald Trump share the position of being less than fulsome in their support for the people of Ukraine as they…
