  2. Debate contribution: Hospital Parking Charges Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    The Member mentioned that journalists have asked questions, which they are entitled to do. However, the key point is that the original Act was passed by all the parties. I remember that, in the Second Stage debate, it was mentioned by some — I will not name the parties — that others had gone out and sold it on their…

  3. Debate contribution: Hospital Parking Charges Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Mr O'Toole thinks that his power as Opposition leader means that he can do great things, but I can assure him that Sinn Féin opposed the Bill at Second Stage and that that was nothing to do with the SDLP.

  4. Debate contribution: Hospital Parking Charges Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    The Sinn Féin position remains, as outlined previously, that the original Hospital Parking Charges Act 2022 should be implemented and charges removed without delay. You would not know it from the debate on the Second Stage of this Bill, but, when the Assembly debated that legislation, almost four years ago, it passed…

  5. Debate contribution: Pharmacy: Wholesaler Bills

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    On Saturday night, I was at the North's Pharmacy in Focus Awards 2026, at which the really good work that our community pharmacists do to provide healthcare and improve patient outcomes for members of our community was extolled. Notwithstanding that engagement and my Committee engagement, I am aware of real pressures…

    • Private Members' Business

    I welcome the opportunity to speak on the Second Stage of the Bill, and I commend my party colleague Declan McAleer for introducing it. The Areas with Natural Constraints Bill is fundamentally about fairness, certainty and long-term resilience for farms and farmers in our most challenging environments. The Bill will…

  7. Member's statement: Ballycastle: Award for Best Place to Live

    • Members' Statements

    Living in and representing North Antrim as an MLA is a huge privilege for me. In my biased view, in terms of natural beauty and tourist attractions, no place in Ireland compares. In North Antrim, with all its special places to live, at the top of the tree sits Ballycastle. Is it any surprise that, last week,…

  8. Debate contribution: Women’s Health Strategy

    • Private Members' Business

    As a man, I am acutely aware that I will never personally experience many of the health challenges that are faced by women. However, through repeated debates in the Chamber, it has become impossible to ignore the challenges and consistently poor outcomes that women face when trying to access healthcare in the North,…

  9. Debate contribution: Criminal Justice (Sentencing etc) Bill: Second Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    While my colleagues have spoken to the totality of the Bill, I am going to speak exclusively on the issue of gambling addiction and how the progress of the Bill could affect that in a positive way. I speak today as chair of the all-party group on reducing harm related to gambling. There is a very real link between…

  10. Member's statement: Noah's Story

    • Members' Statements

    On Saturday, I had the privilege of attending a hugely successful fundraiser in Dunloy in support of Noah's Story, a charity founded in memory of two-year-old Noah McAleese. Noah was a beautiful little boy whose life was tragically cut short in November 2022. Since then, Noah's family have shown extraordinary courage…

    I welcome the opportunity to contribute to the debate. I thank the Members who tabled the motion, and for the work that Peter and others do in the APG.

    • Department of Health

    To ask the Minister of Health to detail any steps his Department is taking to strengthen early detection, diagnosis, and research into lobular breast cancer, given its increasing prevalence and the evidence that it behaves differently from, and requires different treatment approaches than, other breast cancer types.

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I recently met the Lobular Moonshot Project, which is campaigning to raise awareness and research into lobular breast cancer. Are contacts and discussions with Wes Streeting across the water on implementing funding and research here for that particular type of breast cancer on the Minister's radar?

    Deputy First Minister, you have mentioned a number of measures and the work by your officials in the Executive Office and the delivery unit. Subsequent to that, what specific actions has the delivery unit taken to reduce waiting lists?

  17. Debate contribution: Budget Bill: Second Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    The Member is absolutely correct. We have decades, if not centuries, of evidence to suggest that the British Government could not care less about the people here. The point that she makes is particularly valid: they seem determined to spend more on military matters than they do on public services. In the here and now,…
