  1. Written question AQW 14867/22-27

    To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs, given the impact on Lough Neagh and other waterways, whether he has made any direct representations or proposals to the Minister for Infrastructure in relation to investment in wastewater infrastructure.

  2. Debate contribution: Single-use Plastics Directive

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I welcome the fact that this will be transposed, hopefully without much delay, into local law. On a related subject, has the Minister any plans to increase penalties for dog fouling? Particularly post-COVID, that has been an increased subject of interest in many local authorities.

  3. Debate contribution: Budgetary Pressures

    • Private Members' Business

    I appreciate the Member giving way. I am interested to hear the very interesting dissection of the politics of devolution and fiscal policy in relation to devolved entities. My assumption or thought was that the TUV completely opposes devolution in all its forms. Is that right? I thought that you did not want this…

  4. Debate contribution: Budgetary Pressures

    • Private Members' Business

    I appreciate the Member giving way. This is a genuine point of interest, because I agree with him on some of the cost-of-division points. That is why we have been very loud on the issue of taking money away from integrated schools. I am genuinely interested to know this: if we are spending less per head on pupils than…

  5. Debate contribution: Budgetary Pressures

    • Private Members' Business

    It is good to be back in the Chamber. It is good to be debating fiscal, financial and budgetary matters, and I look forward to doing more of that with my colleagues on the Finance Committee, several of whom have spoken today, and, indeed, with the Finance Minister. We will support the motion but not the amendment,…

  6. Debate contribution: Winter Fuel Payment

    • Ministerial Statement

    On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I will also endeavour to be concise, but I wish to clarify a matter. We have had a bit of political badinage and back-and-forth in the Chamber about the SDLP's role. Unlike the DUP, we have never propped up an austerity Government, and, of course, the Alliance Party's sister party, the…

  7. Member's statement: South Belfast Community Events

    • Members' Statements

    On Saturday, we had a glorious day in Ormeau park. The sun was so strong, and it was so balmy. As one of those people who normally have to shelter under the awning of the beautiful oak and elm trees in Ormeau park, I put on my factor 50 and was there as a participant and volunteer at an amazing community festival…

  8. Debate contribution: Places of Worship: Attacks

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Earlier today, Minister, you said that you would not be proceeding with stand-alone hate crime legislation. That comes after a summer of some of the most shocking race hate that the region has seen. I think that many people in ethnic minority communities and religious minorities will feel let down. How can you say…

  9. Debate contribution: Independent Environmental Protection Agency

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    We are now getting to the heart of it: clearly, in certain specific and very important areas, there is not Executive agreement. That is fine, but it has taken us a few hours to get to that point. Something that is not mentioned at all in the draft Programme for Government is the language commissioner and the…

  10. Debate contribution: Programme for Government: Update

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Earlier, deputy First Minister, I asked for specifics on waiting list reductions, but, I am afraid, I did not get them. Having had a little longer to look through the 80-odd-page document and some of the supporting documents, can I ask you to point to a single, specific new target that the Executive have agreed to in…

  11. Debate contribution: Programme for Government: Public Consultation

    • Ministerial Statement

    The constructive Opposition have been constructive in calling for a Programme for Government for months now. We welcome the fact that one has been published, but we have also been clear that the people of Northern Ireland expected clear targets and clear plans to deliver. On page 27 of the Programme for Government,…

  12. Topical question AQT 481/22-27

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Mr O'Toole asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister, in light of the fact that a Lough Neagh action plan was published some weeks ago, albeit with mostly non-binding actions, to state whether, when finalised, the Programme for Government will commit to the creation of an independent environmental protection…

  13. Written question AQW 14679/22-27

    • Department of Health

    To ask the Minister of Health to detail (i) the efforts his Department has made to contact the next of kin of deceased patients of Dr Michael Watt to alert them about Phase Three of the Neurology Deceased Patients Review; and (ii) whether they can request their loved one be included in this phase.
