I thank the Minister for giving way. I sense a real commitment from him, particularly in relation to the developments of up to five years old. He does not have a magic wand and those older ones will be much more difficult. He has tasked officials with producing new guidance. When does he hope that it will be produced,…
My colleague is distracting me here. I declare an interest as someone who recently moved onto an adopted road.

I do not intend to use this as an opportunity to bash the…

The Minister will be aware that, as a result of the city deal project, Northern Ireland will have a new advanced manufacturing site on the edge of my constituency, and of yours, Mr Deputy…
I am delighted that Currie Primary School in my North Belfast constituency will be one of those moving to full-time provision. Can the Minister give any further updates on how his work impacts on residents right across North Belfast?
I thank the Finance Minister for coming to the House this afternoon to update Members. It is disappointing, however, that some Ministers found it appropriate to give a running commentary of events before Members had been informed of the outcomes. Can the Finance Minister confirm that, of the £631·5 million allocated,…
My thoughts are with those who knew Anna Lo and those who loved her. I had only one interaction with her, and that was in this place. I was a politics student at Belfast Royal Academy in 2009. Our class was very diverse, and we could not agree on a single thing. Our teacher, trying to get us to agree and not argue…
Mr Brett asked the Minister of Education, given that supporting working families and helping them with the cost of childcare has been a priority for the Minister and his party, and while being delighted that the Minister has secured £25 million to support families right across Northern Ireland, to provide the House…

I thank the Minister for his announcement. It is an important initiative that will be even more important this winter as a result of the decision taken by the Opposition's sister party in Parliament to cut the winter fuel allowance for pensioners. Minister, how can we ensure that the funding that is awarded to…
