All of Mr Paul Frew’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
Thank you, Mr Speaker, for your grace. I thought that, in your generosity, you had discovered the Christmas Carroll there. I speak about an event that I attended this morning, a collective healing through honouring our loved ones. It was a meeting to launch a report on all the people who died during the pandemic and…
To ask the Minister of Justice to detail the number of 3D printed firearms that have been found in Northern Ireland, over the last two years, including the type of firearm.
I support the motion and commend the proposer of it for bringing to the House a very sensitive issue. We are a legislature, and, in legislating, we need flexibility to bring in new laws when they are required. As life becomes more modern and digital technology takes over, the Assembly must adapt. The legislative…
I thank the Member for giving way. Is it not a bit rich for Sinn Féin to have tabled such a motion, which is divisive and couched in the language of majoritarianism, when it does not even take its seats at Westminster?
To ask the Minister of Justice to detail the processing targets that have been set at senior management level in the PSNI, for processing firearms applications, bearing in mind that the 2018 NI Audit Office's Firearms Licensing in Northern Ireland report stated that the 56 day target can be processed much more quickly.
To ask the Minister of Justice whether her Department has carried out a review of the Impact Assessment, since the last amendments to the Firearms (Northern Ireland ) Order 2002 were implemented, particularly banded system, young shooters and fees increase.
To ask the Minister of Justice, in the context of firearms licensing internal processes for applications, to detail any reviews that have been carried out, over the last ten years, to ensure that the PSNI's Firearms and Explosives Branch's internal processes, are necessary.
To ask the Minister of Justice, given that the PSNI declared a critical incident within Firearms and Explosives Branch (FEB), in July 2022, due to a significant backlog of firearm licence applications, to detail (i) when the critical incident finished; (ii) the lessons learned from the critical incident; (iii) the…
To ask the Minister of Justice whether her Department carried out a Regulatory Impact Assessment, prior to the implementation of the Firearms (Northern Ireland) Order 2004.

To ask the Minister of Health to detail the number of times the Strategic Planning and Performance Group and the Public Health Agency have (i) produced reports; and (ii) conducted investigations, under the Serious Adverse Incident Procedure, in each of the last ten years.
I welcome this day in the Chamber. It is a good news day, and that is for a number of reasons, not least because of the sensitivity of the Bill. It is a very heartfelt, sensitive Bill, and it proves that the House is listening to the people out there. The Bill started off as a very dry, mechanical Bill to move what…
Minister, you failed to answer the questions from my colleague Phillip Brett and the leader of the Opposition. Will the First Minister explain why her party, Sinn Féin, moved to immediately suspend an employee from the Assembly who, if we are to believe the revised accounts provided by the Sinn Féin Chief Whip, made…
To ask the Minister of Health to detail all of the Non-Executive Directors who act as the whistleblowing champions, in each health and social care organisation.
To ask the Minister for the Economy to detail when she intends to legislate, under existing powers of the Employment Rights Act 2016, to introduce a requirement for prescribed persons to produce annual reports and submit them to the Department.

Motion Amendment · Private Members' Motion · to “Pressure on PSNI due to Health System Failings”
Pressure on PSNI due to Health System Failings - Amendment 1 Leave out all after ‘resource budget’ and insert: ‘and the PSNI being in urgent need of additional funding with both staff and officer numbers at a critically low level; calls on the Minister of Health to prioritise delivery of the Mental Health Strategy…
I thank the Minister for his answer. His answer contained everything but the terminology around discretionary spend, which our Ministers are increasingly using daily. When the Minister is deciding a Budget or considering a Budget, does he take discretionary spend into consideration before he allocates that funding?
I thank the Member for giving way. It should be acknowledged today when we are having a debate about the census, that, not so long ago, Sinn Féin claimed that the census was a British tool for spying on nationalist areas of Northern Ireland. That was at the time when they murdered Joanne Mathers, a lady of 29 years of…
