  1. Debate contribution: Age Discrimination (Goods, Facilities and Services) Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    Thank you. I concur with your thought that we should not use the Equality Act as the baseline. When we conducted our inquiry into gaps in equality legislation, there was feedback that the Act in Great Britain is not perfect and could be modernised and added to. I appreciate your intervention there. The Bill sponsor…

  2. Debate contribution: Age Discrimination (Goods, Facilities and Services) Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    Thank you. I appreciate that clarification. That is certainly worth noting as we scrutinise the Bill. There is a question about what constitutes "goods" and "services". They are probably defined in legislation somewhere, but we probably need to look at the practical application of that terminology. I cannot help but…

  4. Debate contribution: Age Discrimination (Goods, Facilities and Services) Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    Thank you for that. A similar area concerns policy decisions relating to Translink about who is eligible for concessionary fares, for example.

  6. Debate contribution: Age Discrimination (Goods, Facilities and Services) Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    I will pick up on the point about car insurance. As you know, a lot of providers and underwriters do not provide a service in Northern Ireland. Is there a danger that an unintended consequence of the new financial requirements could be fewer providers in Northern Ireland?

  8. Debate contribution: Age Discrimination (Goods, Facilities and Services) Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. The concern that I raised at Committee was that you need to be 18 to enter a contract, so, as far as I am concerned, if you went and booked a hotel room, you would be entering a contract. I still have not got my head around how you would square that with people between 16 and 17…

  9. Debate contribution: Prisoners: Early Removal Scheme

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, you have been clear that it is the responsibility of the Home Office to manage the removal of foreign national prisoners where appropriate. Will you please outline what procedures are in place with the Home Office for the deportation of foreign nationals who have been given custodial sentences in Northern…

  10. Debate contribution: Armed Forces Covenant

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    As you know, First Minister, we support the implementation of the armed forces covenant, and we do so because we recognise the fact that everyone from this country deserves to have protections in law when they are being disadvantaged. Your Department is responsible for equality legislation. Please outline any efforts…

    Thank you, Principal Deputy Speaker. I am pleased to present the petition, which was organised by Lough View parents' council and has been signed by 1,084 people. It calls for the installation of a safe designated school crossing on Church Road outside Lough View Integrated Primary and Nursery School to protect…

  20. Debate contribution: Building Political Consensus

    • Opposition Business

    Thank you. I suppose that that is why I raised the issue of the lack of the investment strategy, because we need to move beyond each political cycle. Civil servants will come and go and Budgets will fluctuate, but we need a course of action to ensure that this generation and future generations have the facilities and…

  21. Debate contribution: Building Political Consensus

    • Opposition Business

    I support the motion, although I find some elements of it vague and contradictory. I was hoping that the proposer would clear those up for me. Unfortunately, he did not. No one can dispute that Northern Ireland's DUP/Sinn Féin duopoly leaves increasingly difficult challenges untouched while it engages in a series of…

  22. Debate contribution: St Andrews Agreement: 20 Years On

    • Opposition Business

    Clearly, we have no issue with the original motion, especially with regard to securing progress on policing and justice and the wider need for reform to provide stability in the institutions. However, our amendment is important because, without it, the motion is a fair statement of facts but, we feel, lacks solutions.…

    I thank the Finance Minister for the update. It is a really important issue for my constituents in South Belfast. Minister, do you have any idea of how many management company structures there are in Northern Ireland? The issues are complex. I have worked on five or six cases with different problems with management…
