I thank the Member for giving way. I have grappled with the policy that set up the redress scheme. The HIA redress scheme was a harm-based scheme, and the applicants had to demonstrate the harm that they experienced. The Committee heard in its evidence sessions that the departmental officials deliberated on whether to…

I thank the junior Minister for giving way. The date in 1953 that we came up with relates to inspections of children's homes. Does the junior Minister agree that some of the pregnant girls who were admitted to mother-and-baby institutions were also children and that the state should have had a duty of care towards…

I thank the junior Minister for giving way. I was speaking to a number of the victims and survivors during the break, and some of them are genuinely concerned and distressed that pregnant women and girls who went through the workhouses are not included. Can you give a commitment tonight that, in the instructions to…

I thank the Member for giving way. I draw his attention to the large ledger that the Committee saw when we visited PRONI headquarters. It was a huge book that gave all the details. One column stated why people were in institutions. The vast majority were there because of "destitution". That was the only record, you…

I will first address the Committee amendment in the group and then summarise the Committee's engagement on the other amendments. The Committee tabled one amendment — amendment No 11 — to clause 32, which sets out who is entitled to a redress payment. It is an extremely important provision in this significant Bill. I…

First Minister, the refugee integration strategy is now over a year old. When will we see the first annual report? The strategy says that there is the ability to change direction and emphasis based on emerging issues.

If we make legislative change in the Chamber, there is a statutory duty on the relevant Department to deliver on the elements that pertain under its vires. We have an Education Minister from the DUP at this time, but next time it might be Sinn Féin, the Ulster Unionist Party etc. Departments are not wee fiefdoms for a…

OK. Other political parties have not prioritised it. The Executive were never going to have duplicate manifesto pledges about stuff that they were going to work on. They can take forward only the things on which they have common agreement. Should we let those young people down and not try to advance policies and…

I thank the Member for letting me in. I want to address that point. We came into this mandate with our election manifesto. As Mr Gaston pointed out, this was one of the policy areas that we wanted to work on.

I thank the Member for giving way, and I hope that he will indulge me for a minute. Before I came into full-time politics, I ran a project in the Village area of South Belfast for disengaged young people. The Youth Justice Agency would come to us and ask, "Could you take such-and-such?" I would ask Graham — a lot of…

Mr Gaston, I was not sneering. You were sneering at the Alliance Party and at the procedures in the Chamber, and I was simply correcting you.

Thank you. I stood up at the same time as Sian. On the Justice Bill, I appreciate that you have been co-opted only in the past couple of years, but, in every mandate — the Justice Minister can come in if she wants — there will be a miscellaneous provisions Bill in which a lot of tidying up and progressions will come…
