  1. Debate contribution: Hospital Parking Charges Bill: Second Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. I declare an interest: my daughter is a nurse in Lagan Valley Hospital. We have had multiple issues on the Lagan Valley site for a number of years now. In fact, a multi-agency group has been trying to work out what to do about the overspill of parking in the area, which is causing…

  2. Debate contribution: Vehicle Damage Claims

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his detailed answer. I am sure that he will agree that there is a worrying trend. Does he agree that the issue is not just road deterioration? Perhaps he can update us on his work to look at the quality of repairs, which do not seem to last these days. My inbox is receiving more and more…

  3. Debate contribution: Universal Credit: Remove the Two-child Limit

    • Opposition Business

    Today is my birthday. You will not believe it, but I am in my 30s. I have just turned 30. On my birthday every year, I have a phone call with my mum. I was the first child of five. My mum tells the story of her going into labour 52 years ago, in 1972. The context of that is important, because I lived in a family that…

  5. Debate contribution: Baby Loss Certificate Scheme and Pathology Service

    • Private Members' Business

    I feel wholly inadequate following the Member for Strangford. Through you, Mr Speaker, Kellie, thank you so much for sharing such a personal testimony. I am going to read from a script, but many Members will know that I am passionate about the rights of children and young people, and that extends right to pre-birth…

  6. Debate contribution: Child Poverty

    • Private Members' Business

    Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. Was there a bit of favouritism there? You will tell me off. I support the motion, and I hope that, collectively, we can agree to confront the harsh reality that plagues our society, and that is the scourge of child poverty in Northern Ireland. Child poverty is not unique to Northern…

  7. Debate contribution: ADHD Medication: Shortage

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his answer and his assurance in that regard. He will also be aware that Brexit had implications for the alignment of medicine packaging and licensing. Will the Minister give us an update on that? Is he confident that the post-Brexit arrangements in that area are still working? Did they have…

  8. Debate contribution: Elective Care Procedures: Lagan Valley Hospital

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his answer. I echo his kind words on the performance of the Lagan Valley Hospital regional day-procedure centre. I invite him to join me in visiting the site to acquaint himself in person with its fantastic facilities and provision.

  9. Member's statement: Alt Text

    • Members' Statements

    I would like to speak briefly and, hopefully, in good humour about something that vexes me on a daily basis. Most will know that I am chair of the all-party group on disability and the all-party group on visual impairment. I make this serious plea, wrapped in a sprinkle of a humour and a dash of compassion. I am here…

  11. Member's statement: Mental Health

    • Members' Statements

    As many Members will know, I have been the mental health spokesperson for the Ulster Unionist Party since 2016. I also sit on a number of all-party groups (APGs) and act as secretary for the all-party group on mental health. The APG is fortunate to work with the support of local mental health charity, MindWise. The…

  12. Debate contribution: SEND Places 2024-25

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his answer and the Member for asking such a good question. The key word in her question is "appropriate" places for pupils. What work is the Minister and his Department doing to ensure that the children who receive placements are in the appropriate school, whether that is a special school or…

  13. Debate contribution: Family and Carer Friendly Hours

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Member for his supplementary question. I have some details here. A total of 73 Assembly Commission staff currently have flexible working arrangements in place, of whom 28 are male and 45 are female. If the Member needs any more detail, I am sure that the Assembly Commission will be happy to write to him.

  14. Debate contribution: Family and Carer Friendly Hours

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    We do not often get to question 14. I thank the Member for his question. The Assembly Commission recognises the substantial impact that being a carer can have on an employee’s working life, and the important contribution that carers make towards the economy and wider society. The Assembly Commission has a specific…

  15. Debate contribution: Roof Repair: Parliament Buildings

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Member for his question, which is valid. The delay has, at all times, been informed by legal advice. For the Assembly Commission to have proceeded with the repairs without allowing the parties to inspect the damage and obtain their own advice on liability would have prejudiced the Commission's legal…
