Mrs Sinéad Ennis: Assembly records
All of Mrs Sinéad Ennis’s imported questions, contributions and motions in this mandate, newest first, including those assessed as not flagged, uncertain or not yet analysed.
I thank the Member for his follow-up question. As I said, we take the security of Members, visitors and staff at this Building very seriously. Plans are under way for the installation of a partial electronic access control system for Parliament Buildings. That will be later this year. The system will primarily focus…
I thank the Member for his question. The Assembly Commission takes security extremely seriously, and, while it does not comment on the detail of security arrangements, I can confirm that the most recent review of security at Parliament Buildings was carried out by the PSNI in 2022. Earlier this year, the PSNI…
What we have seen from the deputy First Minister's colleague is a masterclass in, "If you are explaining, you are losing". What he has done today is try to double down on his actions over the weekend and try to "legitimate concern" his way out of it. At what point does ministerial accountability outweigh political…
Go raibh maith agat, a Leas-Cheann Comhairle. I thank all Members who contributed to the debate. During the Second Stage debate, the Assembly Commission acknowledged: "there is no good time to deal with issues relating to Members' salaries and pensions" — [Official Report (Hansard), 17 February 2025, p7, col 2]. and…
End Israeli Impunity in Gaza That this Assembly condemns the ongoing genocide in Gaza that has killed over 50,000, according to figures published by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, and left many thousands suffering from physical, psychological and emotional wounds; further…
Following on from the previous question, I am aware that the Irish Government are prepared to put additional funding into the North/South implementation bodies, which would be a welcome injection of funding to help them to continue to deliver. Surely the Minister agrees that we should avail ourselves of the offer of…
On a point of order, Mr Deputy Speaker. May I ask the Speaker to make a ruling on the Chief Executive's disgraceful decision to deny four women who were wearing "Mothers Against Genocide" T-shirts access to the Building today? I sincerely hope that nobody in the Building finds opposing genocide controversial.
Extension of Sitting on Monday 2 June 2025 under Standing Order 10(3A) That, in accordance with Standing Order 10(3A), the sitting on Monday 2 June 2025 be extended to no later than 8.30pm.
I thank the Minister for giving way. Just on that point, I am sure that DUP Members rubbed their hands with glee when they saw the SDLP amendment. I cannot work out whether the SDLP is being deliberately obtuse or genuinely does not know that the DUP is exercising a veto over the additional funding. If parties refuse…
No, I will make some progress on my speech, if you do not mind. There can be no question of the devastating impact of colonialism around the world. In many ways, the cultural, social and political impact is still being felt by communities today. Exploitation, theft and the infliction of human suffering were the…
I welcome the debate on the motion. Despite some attempts to detract and distract from the actual intent of the motion, the debate has been interesting. I want to pick up on one thing. It was interesting to hear the Minister say that some of the organisations have tenuous claims to ownership of their own artefacts. I…
I, too, send solidarity to the deputy First Minister and everybody across the House who has experienced abuse in the course of their role. It is completely unacceptable and needs to be called out. Will the deputy First Minister provide an update on the Power to Change public awareness campaign?
Rostrevor, to be precise. The second mistruth was from Phillip Brett and the DUP. Despite what you may want to believe, Irish citizens living in the North are part of the Irish nation and share its identity and culture, yet we are denied a voice in choosing the president, who is a head of state representing all Irish…
I will start by addressing some mistruths, the first of which was from Matthew O'Toole. I contend that Mary McAleese is a County Down woman, as opposed to a North Belfast woman.
Uncertain: close callAnother identity-related subjectCriteria met: Identity framing, Controversy escalation.
On a point of order, Mr Speaker. Will you make a ruling on whether Jonathan Buckley's comments about Danny Baker were in violation of the Standing Order on Members' Statements, which states that they cannot: "be used to impugn or to attack another member."?
