Minister, given the clear judgement, will you articulate to the House when you will set out your future policy decisions on reasonable numbers so that we can ensure that there are no further erroneous, politically-motivated court cases, which waste taxpayers' money, to cover up for a terrible Bill that was passed by…
Can the Minister say when a decision is likely to be taken, bearing in mind that he will take into consideration all the evidence that is produced before making a final decision?
It is a good day, because, once again, it exposes those in the House who have no concern for the genuine issues that HMOs cause across Northern Ireland. It is also a good day for my North Belfast constituency, parts of which are being destroyed by HMOs. Does the Minister agree that working-class communities,…

Does the Minister believe that the current eight statutory categories of tourism accommodation are sufficient, or would she support expanding them to include new types of developments, such as glamping pods, which would further cover what Airbnb provides?
I appreciate the Minister's giving way and for articulating answers to some of the questions. I want to push on the timeline for the new scheme; let us call it that. Treasury will not engage until a new proposal is on the table, and officials will not fully work up a new proposal until there is certainty. Given that…
Thank you, Minister, for covering those points. I know it is not within the scope of the Bill per se, but I have questions about the underutilised AME. First, can you confirm to the House what that figure is, currently; and, secondly, what work are your officials doing to advance a scheme that can draw down that…
One year ago, I rose in the House to raise the case of my constituent Mr Daryl Clarke, who was excluded from the Commonwealth Games because he is a Protestant. I vowed then to fight that case. Today, I welcome the 24-page report by the Equality Commission for Northern Ireland, which justifies every single word that I…
