  2. Debate contribution: Neurology Services: Review Recommendations

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for that response. The regional neurology alliance will form the core of that new neurology delivery team, but I have not heard what measurable outcomes the alliance has delivered since October 2025. What governance, decision-making authority and accountability arrangements will you put in place…

  3. Debate contribution: A5: Court of Appeal Judgement

    • Ministerial Statement

    Thank you for your statement, Minister. My thoughts are with all those who have lost their lives on the A5 and their families. How significant is the ruling in clarifying the application of the Climate Change Act and showing that, despite many views to the contrary, climate action and infrastructure projects can go…

  4. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. I begin by thanking Members for their contributions today. It is fair to say that things have been pretty dicey for a number of Members' Bills at Second Stage, but I genuinely appreciate the tone that has been taken and the constructive feedback that I have received. That is…

  5. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    I am not aware of the map that you refer to, but I referred to ancient woodland in my speech as "fragments". We have fragments of it left. I think that it is 0·04%, and it is around 2% or 3% in England. I am happy to look at the map that you refer to regarding ancient woodland, but there is so little of it left.

  7. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    OK, because we initially kicked around the term "heritage tree" and ultimately removed it. I am relieved to hear that. I am sure that Madam Principal Deputy Speaker would have clarified that for me using her excellent research skills. On your point about what would happen if a tree on a farmer's land suddenly got a…

  9. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for his point. It is clear that he has thought about and forensically engaged with the Bill. I do not foresee that happening. I view the Bill as giving councils clarity. A number of points that have come up today, such as about the term "causes or permits", are about giving councils clarity and…

  10. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    I did a public consultation in, I believe, the summer of 2024. Apologies if I misspeak; it feels so long ago. From memory, I think that it was launched in December, and the public were widely engaged. I think that we had around 800 responses. I had to chase the Construction Employers Federation a little because I was…

  13. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for giving way and for his detailed memory on what happened at Tullynagardy. I think that I was one of a handful of people watching that live that night. Resource has come up today as a potential issue. Does the Member agree that a lot of time and resource was wasted by having to go to the PAC on…

  14. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    I welcomed the opportunity to interact with the Committee before the call for evidence went out in the summer. That topic came up during the course of that Committee session, and I flagged it with the drafters when the Bill was being drafted. The phrase "wholly exceptional circumstances" is difficult to define,…

  17. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    I thank the Member for her contribution so far. On her point, we need to constantly remember the expediency test — the risk that could be there for the felling of a tree. I am not aware that there are many TPOs across Northern Ireland. One thing that I have noticed in my consultations over the course of the past four…

  18. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    As I said, I have engaged widely, working alongside the Woodland Trust. I have met contacts across the UK. I spoke in London about the merits of the Bill. It was warmly received by everybody around the room. There is expertise in the UK. There is certainly expertise in Northern Ireland through the Woodland Trust. As I…

  21. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    Out of the 11 councils, nine have maps. Some use electronic maps, while some use paper maps, but they are still maps. It is just Mid Ulster District Council and Newry, Mourne and Down District Council that are falling behind a little bit. The two officers there are doing a stellar job, but those are the councils…

  22. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    TPOs do not get in the way of development. I have just made that point. They are about being mindful of the presence of trees. More than that, ancient woodland is irreplaceable. My colleague behind me was looking to come in on a point about, I am sure, Tullynagardy Wood. Once ancient woodland is gone, it is gone.

    I thank the Member for giving way. I have just realised that, given the line of Infrastructure Committee Chairs, past and present, it is like having the ghosts of Christmas past and present in front of me That thought just came to me.

  25. Debate contribution: Tree Protection Bill: Second Stage

    • Private Members' Business

    The Member makes a valid point. It is one that I discussed with DFI officials, who are in the Chamber today. I initially tried to go along with what is done in England, where the buffer zone is 50 metres, but we realised that there were issues with that, so we scaled it back to 15 metres. We need to remember that less…
