All of Mr Peter Martin’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
I thank the Minister for his answer and for outlining where we are with the early diagnosis of coeliac disease. I thank him for his commitment on the issue to try to ensure that we have the best and most expeditious diagnostic pathways. Will the Minister commit to meeting some representatives of Coeliac UK to discuss…
On Thursday of last week, I was made aware that the Children's Commissioner, Mr Chris Quinn, had endorsed the position where no young person under 16 should be prosecuted for serious crimes such as rape, murder or sexual assault. I offer full credit to David Thompson, the 'News Letter' journalist, for highlighting…

Thank you, Pat. I understand it. I am not sure that people out there in the real world will completely follow what has gone on in your party. The Members opposite have said that they have got teachers' backs, "You guys are safe with us", and so forth. What I think has happened today is that, over the weekend, you…
We have been debating the Bill for a couple of hours now, colleagues, and I feel more confused by certain positions than I did when I came into the Chamber at around 3.30 pm. The Bill is not designed to punish teachers; it is about inspection. It has four clauses, some of which we have dealt with in some detail this…
I thank the Member for giving way. She is always very gracious to me. I commend her for speaking directly about the Bill and for mentioning the Northern Ireland Audit Office report. She said that safeguarding is everyone's business: to an extent, I agree. The report states: "ETI is the only organisation in Northern…
