  1. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for her intervention. Why is that not being done already? Why is our healthcare system not aligned with that? Why are social services not aligned with that? The Member is quite right about kids in care. However, what is being proposed here will put more children into the social services network. We…

  2. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for that clarification. With that compromise and, let's face it, a political negotiation, science and evidence have gone out the window. What you have done is that you have tried to get to a common denominator for which you can get the biggest support in the House. We are talking about law and order…

  3. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. She is passionate about the subject, and listening to her has been informative. However, even in her amendment, she maintains: "A child aged 10 or over may be charged with murder, manslaughter, rape or assault by penetration." How can she square that circle?

  4. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way again. Should it not then be the criminal justice system that gets better? We already treat youngsters and children in our justice system differently from adults. Would it not be better for our criminal justice system to embrace all that the Member has talked about in the past 10…

  5. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. She raises really valid social issues that we have not yet got to grips with but that we should — we should do a lot better. However, how can she align all the ills and dysfunction in Departments in this regard, and Departments not working together to support children and families,…

  6. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. She and I have been through this over the past number of weeks, reciting our arguments. It has been very respectful, and it will remain that way in the Chamber today. The Member says that children are being exploited already. Does she not accept that if we change the age of criminal…

  7. Member's statement: Minimum Age of Criminal Responsibility: Petition of Concern

    • Members' Statements

    Last week, as was her right, Sian Mulholland raised in her Member's statement the issue of using petitions of concern. As is our right, we have tabled a petition of concern on something that we feel very concerned about. Like the DUP, the Ulster Unionist Party states how important justice and the rule of law are, and…

  8. Oral question AQO 3757/22-27

    • The Executive Office

    To ask the First Minister and deputy First Minister to outline any engagement they have had with the Home Office or HM Government regarding the immigration policy under which the individual charged with attempted murder following an incident in North Belfast on 8 June 2026 applied for asylum and was granted leave to…

  9. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I will not keep the House too long on the matter. You will be thankful that I will not go through a full winding-up speech, other than to say, "Thank you very much" to every person who has contributed to the debate. There were others on these Benches who wished to participate, and I thank them for their perseverance…

  10. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I agree 100% with the Minister. I will not be hard on parents, because those vehicles are the next new, shiny thing, and children say, "I want, I want, I want". We all know how hard it is to parent. We also know how much children crave things, especially if their mates have them, but that can add to the danger,…

  11. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Minister for that vital intervention. I agree wholeheartedly with her. I look forward to working with her and her Department on the sentencing Bill as it progresses. Amendment No 74 adds a new clause to amend the Road Traffic (Northern Ireland) Order 1995. It sits alongside what is already in existence in…

  12. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. I will open the debate on this group of amendments, which deals with drink- and drug-driving measures and police seizure of vehicles. This is a really important issue, one of public safety for those on our roads and footpaths, and I will delve into more detail on why I think that that is…
