To ask the First Minister and deputy First Minister to detail when they plan to publish the findings and recommendations arising from the research on Historical Clerical Child Abuse.
Thank you for your answer. I suppose that success will be shown in how well the businesses respond to it. What further support will you provide directly to the businesses and in collaboration with the night czar, Michael Stewart, to make sure that it is a success?
Given the change of focus of the new legacy proposals that are put forward in the joint framework, what work will your Department do with others to ensure that we see delivery of sustainable, long-term reconciliation on this island?
Ms Bradshaw asked the Minister for the Economy, after welcoming the one-year pilot for late-night transport, which is an excellent example of collaboration not just across Departments but with the private sector, what success will look like at the end of the year and how she will monitor and evaluate the scheme.
To ask the Minister of Health whether the long-acting injectable form of HIV prevention treatment, cabotegravir (CAB-LA), which has been approved for use on the NHS in England, Wales and Scotland, is available to patients in Northern Ireland.
To ask the Minister of Health to outline any plans his Department has to develop and fund a transition framework to support young people with autism, aged 18 to 25, in moving from children to adult autism services.
To ask the Minister of Health whether he will consider instructing the Public Health Agency to update cervical screening information so that it explicitly clarifies the programme does not detect ovarian, womb, vulval or vaginal cancers.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail (i) what fertility preservation options, including egg freezing, are available under health and social care for women under 30 who have undergone unilateral oophorectomy due to benign tumours; and (ii) whether there are plans to expand eligibility for fertility support in such…
To ask the Minister of Health to detail whether women who have undergone unilateral oophorectomy are entitled to routine ultrasound monitoring of the remaining ovary under health and social care services.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail what action he will take in response to research by Target Ovarian Cancer showing that almost half of women in Northern Ireland mistakenly believe cervical screening detects ovarian cancer.
To ask the Minister of Health to detail any steps he is taking to improve public awareness of ovarian cancer symptoms and routes to early diagnosis, given that survival rates here remain among the lowest in Europe.
I thank the Minister for giving way. About a year ago, in the Chamber, I asked for an update on the strategy, and I was told then that we would have it soon. Are you confident that the strategy will be forthcoming in this mandate?
Thank you. I am concerned that what the Member has picked up on are the immediate pressures on spend. An investment strategy would allow for longer-term thinking so that bigger projects could be delivered.
I support the motion because a case for an investment strategy for Northern Ireland is actually one of the most urgent and important issues before us. It is a test of our ability to plan for the future and not just react to the present. Like many across the Chamber, I share real disappointment at the continued failure…
Thank you, Matthew, for giving way. We will support the motion, but we take exception to the line in it that states: "rejects the efforts by some to distract from the clear failure of Executive delivery with petty rows". What do you think that adds to the motion? It distracts and just looks like petty politicking.
Cervical Screening Scandal Inquiry That this Assembly expresses concern at the lack of transparency, delay and slow pace of the investigations and reviews into both individual patients and the overall cervical screening scandal by the Department of Health and the Southern Health and Social Care Trust; recognises the…
Supporting Service Leavers, Veterans and their Families That this Assembly recognises that the transferable skills developed by many armed forces service leavers and veterans can make an important contribution to our economy and build stronger communities; believes that those serving, service leavers, veterans and…
Thank you. I am pondering your words about areas where flags go up. As you know, I am bringing forward a Member's Bill. Are you saying that, where the majority of people in an area do not approve of flags going up, they should not go up?
I thank the Member for giving way. As you know, my party is keen to see large-scale institutional reform of the Assembly and the Executive. Are you saying now that you would be fully supportive of us in changing the way that we do government here so that we cannot have that stop-start approach to government here?
