All of Ms Sian Mulholland’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.

Ms Mulholland asked the Minister for Communities, given that he came to the Committee on Thursday and talked about his duty to listen and reflect, saying that there would be significant change in the next version of the draft anti-poverty strategy, to outline the consultation responses and the changes that will be…
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, in light of recent serious road traffic collisions on or near the A26 Frosses Road and Lisnevenagh Road corridor and repeated public representation regarding the safety of this route, whether she will (i) commission an urgent road safety review of this stretch, including (a)…
I support the motion and the amendments and I recognise the immense social and economic value of Northern Ireland's voluntary and community sector. We need to stop talking about the voluntary and community sector as though it were somehow separate from public service delivery, because it is not; it is so intertwined.…
Like everyone else, I put on record my admiration for Katie's friends and those who loved her and her family. The Minister knows that I am really interested in safeguarding. There have been many failings in that area over the last while. Can you give us a bit more information about what changes in safeguarding,…

To ask the Minister for Communities to detail the average time taken for a Personal Independence Payment applicant to receive an initial decision, in each of the last three years.
Minister, do you agree that, where domestic abuse and coercive control are present, the starting point must be the child — their voice and point of view — and that there should not be an assumption that contact with a parent is always beneficial?
I thank the Minister for his answer. As he said, there is a real fear among registered school-age childcare providers that the draft strategy simply places greater emphasis on non-health and social care trust-registered provision in school estates. Settings such as Loughgiel Community Early Years in my constituency…
To ask the Minister of Health to outline how the delivery of the Together for Families model will be monitored to ensure consistency across Health and Social Care Trusts.
Does the Member agree that there has to be a multidisciplinary approach and that early intervention would save money down the line and, hopefully, save lives?
Minister, many in the arts sector say that you talk the talk, but they are still waiting for you to walk the walk. This has been going on for so long. They have waited for so long for the policies. What is the hold-up? Why is your Department not bringing forward these policies in a timely manner?
Thank you, Minister. Given that the puffins arrived on Rathlin a couple of weeks ago, can you give us an update on the seabird conservation strategy, given that it links so much to the work of the LIFE Raft project?
