Miss Órlaithí Flynn: Assembly records
All of Miss Órlaithí Flynn’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
I thank the First Minister for her response. Will she commit to continuing to do everything that she can to build equality and to protect language and cultural rights for everyone right across our society?
Go raibh maith agat First Minister for that detailed response. I note that you referred to the launch of the childcare scheme at the end of your response. Do you agree that we still need to do much more to deliver high-quality and affordable childcare for parents?
I thank the Minister for that response. I am sure that he will appreciate the difficulty, which we all hear about in our constituency offices, particularly when a young person has lived their whole life in a family home, and then, sadly, a parent or relative passes away, and they have to leave their home. If there is…
Ms Flynn asked the Minister for Communities whether he has any plans to undertake a review of the Housing Executive's tenancy succession policy for properties, as she has been contacted by a number of constituents from her local area who have been impacted on by that policy.
I thank the Minister for that response. He touched on my next question: does the Minister accept that, without changes to the British Government's inheritance tax proposals, the future sustainability of family farms here could be undermined? Will he give that commitment to continue to press the British Government to…
Ms Flynn asked the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs, given the British Government's potential to rethink inheritance tax changes, to ensure that the specific needs of farmers in the North of Ireland are fully taken into account in any revised tax proposals.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail (i) when the new Breastfeeding Strategy will be published; and (ii) what (a) measurable targets; (b) resource allocations; and (c) oversight mechanisms, will be included to ensure that breastfeeding continuation rates improve equitably, given the persistently low rates in more…
I appreciate that update from the Minister. Does she agree that it is about getting the message out to people that those measures are genuinely about giving people an alternative to sitting in traffic and that that is the message that she wants to promote?
Sorry, Minister, I do not want to take up too much of your response time. On the interim measures, have you looked at the model, which was referred to by a couple of Members, that appeared in the BBC 'Spotlight' programme — the temporary ward that was set up in Exeter? Have you or your officials looked at that?
I beg to move Go raibh maith agat, a Leas-Cheann Comhairle. The motion calls for the urgent establishment of a dedicated mother-and-baby unit (MBU) here in the North of Ireland. It is about compassion, equality and the basic right of every woman to access the specialist care that she needs during one of the most…
Ms Flynn asked the Minister for Infrastructure, while conscious that this is her second question that focuses on Belfast, to provide an update on her measures to keep Belfast moving in the run-up to Christmas.
To ask the Minister of Health to outline what improvements his Department intends to make to gynaecological services across the Health and Social Care Trusts.
To ask the Minister of Health to outline his Department’s plans for a redress scheme for women harmed by transvaginal mesh, including (i) whether provision will be made for reimbursement of surgery carried out in specialist centres outside the North of Ireland, such as in the United States; and (ii) whether…
To ask the Minister of Health to detail (i) any steps being taken to expand the Waiting List Reimbursement Scheme to recognise the needs of mesh injured women; and (ii) whether the scheme applies to treatment in England, including highly specialised mesh removal surgery.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail any assessment that has been carried out into the long-term health risks associated with microplastic exposure from transvaginal mesh implants.
To ask the Minister of Health (i) whether non-disclosure agreements have been used in mesh related settlements; and (ii) to outline any measures that are in place to ensure transparency for patients and survivors.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail (i) the number of dental practices in the Greater Belfast area are currently accepting new NHS patients; (ii) whether a list of these practices can be provided to the public; (iii) the criteria dental practices are required to follow when accepting new NHS patients; and (iv) the…
To ask the Minister of Health (i) to detail what proportion of an individual’s PAYE and National Insurance contributions is allocated to NHS dental treatment; and (ii) whether there is any mechanism for individuals to reclaim this portion if they are unable to access NHS dental services.
I thank the Member for giving way. He is giving examples from around the rest of the island and in other countries. Has he been following the work of the citizens' assembly in the South on drug use and the issues surrounding it, and does he agree that we should harmonise across the island the outcomes in the…
I beg to move Go raibh maith agat, a Leas-Cheann Comhairle. At the heart of the motion in my name and those of my Sinn Féin colleagues is a simple but powerful principle: harm reduction saves lives. We are here today to discuss an issue that is not abstract but real, immediate and deeply human. Each year, young people…
