All of Mr Peter McReynolds’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
Minister, I am sure that you have seen the devastating destruction caused by the wildfires in LA over the past week. Against that context, what is your response to the news that 2024 was the first year to pass the 1·5°C global warming limit?
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, pursuant to AQW 18800/22-27, when he will publish the analysis undertaken by policy areas in his Department which informed the review conducted in November 2023 into whether the Highway Code for Northern Ireland should be updated.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure whether Translink is exploring the introduction of batteries to retrofit existing trains on the network to reduce both carbon emissions and fuel costs.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, in relation to the active travel amendment in the Climate Change Act (Northern Ireland) 2022, (i) whether his Department has defined what 10 per cent of the transport budget represents; (ii) how he will fund this figure; and (iii) when these figures and plans will be published.
Minister, an important part of placemaking, for connectivity purposes, is our roads. Was tackling congestion discussed during the meeting, and what best practice did you hear about?
Minister, the congestion that we saw on Sunday was on a day when the bus lanes were open. What consideration was given to whether having all works and closures at the same time was a viable proposition, and can you advise what others were proposed?
I thank the Minister for that update. In the absence of a commissioned service, what is your assessment of the situation where those with a private diagnosis of ADHD have their shared care arrangement reviewed, are given a deadline of 180 days before access to their life-changing medication is withdrawn and are then…
I thank the First Minister for her response. First Minister, Northern Ireland Water is facing monumental challenges, a question for urgent oral answer has been submitted today on congestion pressures in Belfast city centre, DFI officials were fielding questions on 'The Nolan Show' this morning and the York Street…
Mr McReynolds asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister to outline when the Assembly will hear about options on the establishment of an expert-led infrastructure commission.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, pursuant to AQW 18962/22-27, (i) for a breakdown of the £0.5 billion figure cited by (a) resource; (b) capital; and (c) earmarked projects, taking account of the alterations to the final opening budget allocations from the Equality Impact Assessment; (ii) to detail the…
I welcome the opportunity to speak in the debate, which, I think it is fair to say, is on two separate topics. On the one hand, the SDLP motion is about the fare imbalances between the North and South of Ireland, and, on the other hand, the broader DUP amendment is about the electrification of the network, the opening…
Sewage Spills To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to commission an independent review of Northern Ireland Water’s funding model, in light of new evidence by the Spotlight programme of the harmful and illegal levels of untreated sewage in Belfast.
I support the motion and thank those who tabled it. I have spoken in support of similar motions in debates over the years, as a councillor in Belfast City Council and now as an MLA, and I find that, at times, they can become a bit academic. We must remember that these are people, families and friends facing the…
National Tree Week is an opportunity for us all to reflect on the essential role that trees play in fighting climate change, preserving wildlife and biodiversity and improving our physical and mental health. Sadly, Northern Ireland is in a pretty poor state, with the worst woodland cover in the UK and Ireland and the…
To ask the Minister of Education, pursuant to AQW 18339/22-27, for a breakdown of the cost implications for reinstating the Primary Modern Languages Programme.
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure whether his Department has undertaken an assessment of the risk of not updating the Highway Code for Northern Ireland to reflect recent changes in Great Britain.
Paid Carer’s Leave That this Assembly recognises the significant contribution to our economy and society made by the more than 220,000 people who are providing unpaid care for family and friends in Northern Ireland; acknowledges the economic and social impact of carers being forced out of the workplace or to reduce…
