    • Question for Urgent Oral Answer

    The Minister said that he was legally prohibited from granting integrated status to the two schools in Bangor.

Will the Minister explain why there has been such a divergence of opinion…

    • Ministerial Statement

    Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as ucht a ráitis inniu. I welcome the statement, in which the Minister rightly states that some of our schools will need specialist support.

    Go díreach i ndiaidh don Tionól scaoileadh don Nollaig, bhí Lá Idirnáisiúnta na nImirceach ann. Má tá an lá féin thart, sílim gur fiú cúpla focal a rá leis, toisc a thábhachtaí atá ábhar an lae ar leith sin. Is iomaí cúis leis an imirce, amhail súil le sábháilteacht, síocháin nó saoirse, mar shampla. Is cinneadh…

    Inniu, tugann na Náisiúin Aontaithe chun ár gcuimhne an cinedhíothú agus na daoine uilig go léir a maraíodh dá dheasca.

  11. Debate contribution: Defibrillators in Schools: Funding

    • Ministerial Statement

    Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as ucht a ráitis. I also welcome the initiative from the Minister. We are all very aware of the pressures on the Education budget. Did the Minister ask his colleagues in the Health Department to shoulder some of the burden of the cost of the devices?

  14. Debate contribution: Statutory Duty of Candour

    • Private Members' Business

    Just on the chill factor and some individuals in the health system being afraid to speak out because they are under pressure maybe from more senior people in the health service. If they have a choice to make between acquiescing in what a more senior person wants or complying with the law, where, if they do not, they…

  15. Debate contribution: Statutory Duty of Candour

    • Private Members' Business

    Go raibh maith agat, a Phríomh-Leas-Cheann Comhairle. There seems to be some misunderstanding about what an individual duty of candour is — one with criminal sanctions. It is not about penalising doctors or other medical professionals who make genuine mistakes. It is about ensuring that there is a culture of…
