Assessment details for Debate contribution: Good Relations: Challenges Official Assembly record for Debate contribution: Good Relations: Challenges
I do not have the specific figures with me, but I can say that the offices that we have in Washington and Brussels represent value for money and that it is important that we have networks. Alongside that, remember that Invest NI also has premises all over, internationally, which gives us a global footprint for…
Assessment details for Debate contribution: Northern Ireland Bureau North America Official Assembly record for Debate contribution: Northern Ireland Bureau North America
One good example is our ending violence against women and girls strategic framework. That was based on data that was garnered from different sources and brought into one home, which then allowed us to develop our policy and strategy accordingly. We must be data-informed. We cannot just do things on a whim. We must…
Assessment details for Debate contribution: Departments: Data Sharing Official Assembly record for Debate contribution: Departments: Data Sharing
We work right across Departments to try to share as much information as we can, because each Department holds different information. As part of the development of the Programme for Government, we now have a portal that we can access to look at different data. That is important, because we need to be able to measure…

Yes, absolutely. The North/South Ministerial Council (NSMC) and the British-Irish Council are among the bodies that were established under the Good Friday Agreement, and they remain key components of it. All the bodies that were established must work. We take the opportunities that are presented to us to learn from…
Assessment details for Debate contribution: British-Irish Council: Update Official Assembly record for Debate contribution: British-Irish Council: Update
Yes. The deputy First Minister and I, the Economy Minister and the Agriculture Minister all travelled to Edinburgh to be part of the BIC meeting. The Taoiseach, the Tánaiste, the Prime Minister and the First Ministers of Scotland and Wales were all there, and the conversation was about just transition financing.…

I will write to the Member so that I do not give her misinformation about who exactly we have contacted, but I have no doubt that that work was followed up, given that we had that protection. As we know, it is an issue across this island, and I can assure you that we raised it at the North/South Ministerial Council,…
Assessment details for Debate contribution: Mother-and-baby Homes Inquiry: Religious Institutions Official Assembly record for Debate contribution: Mother-and-baby Homes Inquiry: Religious Institutions
Not in relation to the Programme for Government consultation, obviously, but, previously, I, as deputy First Minister, met the religious institutions about their contribution. We need to continue to do that where appropriate. As you will be aware, negotiations are under way to try to ensure that all the institutions…

As a general point, I can agree with that.

Assessment details for Debate contribution: Civil Service: Temporary Promotions Official Assembly record for Debate contribution: Civil Service: Temporary Promotions
I can only make a general point on that, given that the remit for Civil Service employment falls under DOF. Where we have temporary positions, we should move to make them permanent. We should have proper workforce planning. We insist on that across the public service, and we should also have that in the Civil Service.…

Sorry, I missed what you said. Did you mean an options paper in relation to waste water infrastructure? Yes. I know that there is a question for urgent oral answer to DFI today as well. This is one of the biggest issues that we have to grapple with as an Executive. Investing in waste water infrastructure will take…

I think that I might have received a question for written answer from you at some stage recently. Yes. The position is the same. We have received the SIB review, and we hope to be able to bring forward proposals in this area, particularly because we will be bringing forward the investment strategy. It is important…

It is a far cry from constructive opposition, Matthew, I will tell you that. I am very pleased. We are coming up to the one-year anniversary of this institution coming back, and, in this first year, the four parties in the Executive have made remarkable progress collectively. I am so glad that we have made progress on…

As I said, seven Bills are under way, and we are working our way through those. There are others still to come. There are some that, I believe, are only weeks away from being introduced in the Chamber. We know that there are a number of policy decisions to be made, particularly around some consultations that were had,…
Assessment details for Debate contribution: Legislative Programme: Update Official Assembly record for Debate contribution: Legislative Programme: Update
Yes, I agree. I do not think that it takes into account our local situation and the fact that we have the highest agricultural land prices. It disproportionately impacts on our farmers and farm families here. We have been very vocal about the issue, and we will continue to be very vocal about it. We need to have the…

On 18 November, along with the Agriculture and Finance Ministers, we wrote to the Chancellor, urging her to reconsider the decision and ensure that agriculture and business property reliefs are retained as they currently apply and the ability to pass a family farm down from one generation to the next is protected.…

Yes, absolutely. The support services are vital in supporting victims and survivors across a range of areas. We want to ensure that everything that we have in place is appropriate.

I am keen to answer any of the questions that are put to me, but it is not appropriate for me to get into the ins and outs of why individual Ministers have not brought forward legislation, some of which I am aware of and some of which will take a little longer because of policy development issues. It may be the other…

Seven Executive Bills have begun their passage through the Assembly, and it is our expectation that, subject to the consent of the Assembly, all the Bills included in the Executive's initial legislative programme for 2024-25, which was announced back on 23 May, will be introduced during the 2024-25 session of the…

Unfortunately, electoral legislation is not under the remit of the Executive Office. As a party representative, I absolutely advocate voting at 16. There is no agreement across the House on the topic, but we have had a debate and a discussion. Individually, I always lobby and advocate for voting at 16, including…
