Thank you very much, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. I want to pick up on some themes that have been talked about today, including defence, which the previous Member to speak and the Member for South Antrim mentioned, but I will start with the comments of the Member for Foyle. If she had taken an intervention from me,…
I apologise, Mr Speaker. I thank the DFM for going to the security briefings over the weekend and gaining live information that will assist British and Irish passport holders from Northern Ireland who are in the region. We needed someone in that room. Will she share any additional information that is not subject to…
I am glad that at least some Members have talked about the Iranian people in the middle of the debate, and I reflect the fact that 'Channel 4 News', which is hardly GB News, reported over the weekend that Iranians in the UK have welcomed the death of the ayatollah. It is a moment that many Iranians have dreamt of:…

I thank the Member very much for taking an intervention. She properly highlighted something that I forgot to mention, which is the impact of the sewerage issue in Northern Ireland. I cited the fact that it impacts on house prices, but she has raised the fact that it impacts on our landscape, including Lough Neagh and…
I will speak in my capacity as the DUP's infrastructure lead. I will focus my comments on the financial issues facing the Department for Infrastructure and the implications of inaction. The vote that we are talking about today is about money: how it is allocated and how Departments spend it. It is worth making the…
I thank the Member for giving way. It is good to see somebody else from the Infrastructure Committee, aside from Harry and me. The Minister relies a lot on the three-pronged approach that the Member has just mentioned. Given that he has raised an incredibly serious issue about Northern Ireland Water's funding, is he…
