Mr Patsy McGlone: Assembly records
All of Mr Patsy McGlone’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure what whistleblowing protections exist within her Department for private sector contractors and their employees, employed on public sector projects.
The assurance that I seek from you, Minister, is that there will be no diminution of services or depletion of access to services, especially for those of us who live in rural areas.
I thank the Minister for his answer. Expanding on that theme, has the Minister engaged with local producers to understand the practical effects of the agreement on cross-border trade and, indeed, market access?
Mr McGlone asked the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs, after condemning the intolerable abuse that has been directed at the Minister and his departmental personnel, whether the Department is engaged in or intends to conduct a review of office accommodation.
Go raibh míle maith agat, a Leas-Cheann Comhairle. I thank all Members from different parties who contributed to this important debate. The contributions have reflected a shared understanding across the Floor that the safety of children at school bus stops cannot be left to chance. I especially acknowledge the…
To ask the Minister of Education to outline: (i) what assessment has been made of the suitability of the new 4:15pm start time for Education Authority Music Service ensemble hubs for rural working families, particularly those with children attending schools in geographically separate locations; and (ii) if a Rural…
I appreciate the Member giving way and thank him for that. Will he accept that it is not just about dental health? When you visit a dentist, other issues, such as oral cancers, can be spotted by a dentist when they are examining a person's mouth?
Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as a ráiteas. Minister, I have read your statement, and, to be honest, there seem to be plenty of titles, but it is short on detail. For example, the 'Environment Work Sector Policy Report 2020-24' is to be published. Can you give us any idea when that will be published? Secondly,…

To ask the Minister for Infrastructure for an update on progress to appoint an independent specialist electrical engineer to investigate the propriety of a number of contracts at NI Water.
Go raibh maith agat, a Phríomh-Leas-Cheann Comhairle. The SDLP welcomes the statutory rule for the Farming with Nature regulations. The regulations mark a significant step forward in addressing the twin crises of biodiversity loss and environmental degradation. The Farming with Nature regulations are necessary,…
We have heard today about some of the problems that we face, and many of them are very apparent. In our offices, we deal with many issues to do with health, education, housing: the list goes on. I will start with housing. I referred earlier the major issues that we will face as a result of the drastic changes to…
Thank you for highlighting those points, particularly about housing. Does the Member accept that the Labour Party's proposals to introduce changes to welfare and PIP, albeit not the Executive's doing, will have an incredibly negative effect on many people's ability to afford their housing costs? Indeed, some of those…
On the sausages bit, Minister, I do not know whether you have received any news from the MP for East Antrim yet or any white smoke or anything. We will maybe get a positive from him. Seriously, going back to alignment on SPS checks, Minister, how do you see that, in light of our unique position under the Windsor…
Minister, at the last Communities Question Time, you confirmed to me that you would be happy enough to attend Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Belfast if you received an invite. Have you received that invite yet?
Along with thousands of other Gaels, colleagues and I attended the Walk for Truth to Páirc Seán de Brún in Bellaghy on Friday evening. People from all over Ireland — clubs and counties — marched to call for justice for Bridie and her family and for an inquiry into the callous murder of Sean Brown, an innocent man who…
