  1. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Yes, please. On that line of thought, when it comes to putting thoughts of racism and other behaviour into young children's minds, does the Member agree that an obscene banner pinned to a children's playground by adults most definitely imprints such attitudes in children's minds and encourages them? The children are…

  2. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Thank you. The Member, very powerfully, listed all the organisations that interact with young people in Northern Ireland, many of which interact with the justice system. Those organisations have expressed, very strongly and vocally, their opinion on the minimum age of criminal responsibility. Does the Member agree…

  3. Debate contribution: North/South Ministerial Council: Institutional and Plenary Meetings

    • Ministerial Statements

    I thank the First Minister for her statement. First Minister, what discussions, if any, have you had with the Irish Government about compensation from the institutions for the victims and survivors of the mother-and-baby homes? From working on the Bill, the Committee understands that the Irish Government have found it…

  4. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I will ask the Member one question. He speaks with incredible passion and, for some people, perhaps even with some authority and knowledge. Indeed, his words might be persuasive, but has he not the slightest comprehension that he totally and utterly lost the plot the moment that he, along with Ms Armstrong, Mr…

  5. Debate contribution: Justice Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I will give the Member a practical example. The staff and principal of a school in my constituency were so concerned about the proximity of drug dealers and adults when young people were going out at lunchtime from the school, that they had to ban all unsupervised exit from the school. Children could not even go to…

  6. Debate contribution: Health

    • Question for Urgent Oral Answer

    Thank you very much, Minister, for your "No ifs or buts" and robust comments around all of the horrific incidents that happened last week. Minister, will you join me in condemning the ripping down of railings outside the operating theatre at Whiteabbey Hospital, which were ultimately used as spears to throw at the…

  7. Debate contribution: High Street Task Force

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Deputy First Minister, I appreciate your comments about the global effect on our high streets, the report that was delivered in 2023 and the actions that flowed from that. However, with the exception of rate reduction, it is genuinely difficult to see how those actions have hit home on our high streets. I think…

  8. Debate contribution: Encompass

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, you have been talking about the excellent work that Encompass does. However, the regional Encompass team recently wrote to GPs expressing concerns that some 12,000 red-flag letters and other pieces of correspondence seem to have gone missing from the system. GPs are very rightly concerned that they are not…

  9. Debate contribution: Inquiry (Mother and Baby Institutions, Magdalene Laundries and Workhouses) and Redress Scheme Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    This is such an important and difficult issue to deal with. The Chair of the Committee indicated to you — everyone in the House will acknowledge — that TEO has engaged extensively with a wide range of groups. However, there seems to be some obfuscation around why you did not engage on, or how you came to a decision…

    Will the junior Minister give way?

  11. Debate contribution: Inquiry (Mother and Baby Institutions, Magdalene Laundries and Workhouses) and Redress Scheme Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Much has been said about the second group of amendments. Much of it is about entitlement to payment and the amount. I do not intend to go into any further detail, because other Members have already done that. It was clear to the Committee that £10,000 was an insufficient sum of money. It is a figure that was used for…

  12. Debate contribution: Inquiry (Mother and Baby Institutions, Magdalene Laundries and Workhouses) and Redress Scheme Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I struggle to understand what the Minister is saying. If someone was born into an institution and then left it, probably having no knowledge of having been in that institution — certainly not at the time of their birth — and, a number of years later, ended up in the same institution or a different one, that is a…

  14. Debate contribution: Inquiry (Mother and Baby Institutions, Magdalene Laundries and Workhouses) and Redress Scheme Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the junior Minister very much for her comments on seeking contributions not only from various organisations but from the United Kingdom Government and the Treasury. It is important for people to understand that, as is being said at this point, while the cost of compensation as a result of the Bill will fall to…

  16. Debate contribution: Inquiry (Mother and Baby Institutions, Magdalene Laundries and Workhouses) and Redress Scheme Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. I note in particular his comments about the charitable status of various organisations. There is still some concern for us in respect of the relationship between charity legislation in Northern Ireland and the impact that the Bill will have. There is still space and time for the…

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for his intervention. Yes, there has to be adequate time. On the figures that are currently contained in the amendments, as set out, and as the Chair has already indicated, certainly, we will support Gerry Carroll's amendment with regard to the move from 14 days to 28 days. To be absolutely clear —…

  18. Debate contribution: Inquiry (Mother and Baby Institutions, Magdalene Laundries and Workhouses) and Redress Scheme Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I begin, like all Members who have spoken in the debate, by paying tribute to the victims and survivors and all those who had the bravery to come forward and tell their stories. I thank all who have assisted them. We listened to what people had to tell us, including in Committee, about traumatic circumstances, and we…

  19. Member's statement: Cancer Statistics

    • Members' Statements

    Today, I will chair the Assembly's all-party group on cancer. We will receive a presentation from the Northern Ireland Cancer Network and will examine the issues behind some of the most harrowing cancer statistics in Northern Ireland. I would like to share with the House some of those statistics and the work and…
