  7. Debate contribution: Cost-of-living Crisis

    • Opposition Business

    I accept that it has led to an increase in the price and in the cost of living, but the cost-of-living crisis did not begin only a month ago. Fuel prices have risen since the conflict began, but that does not change the underlying reality that over 50% of the price of every tank of fuel is not driven up by Donald…

  8. Debate contribution: Cost-of-living Crisis

    • Opposition Business

    Opposition day can always bring out the best in the Executive. Indeed, we have already seen the Executive parties knocking lumps out of one another. What the motion also does is expose the SDLP. One could be forgiven for forgetting that the SDLP at Westminster sits on the Back Benches with the Labour Government. The…

  9. Member's statement: Police Ombudsman: Vetting

    • Members' Statements

    Last year, I wrote to the UK Security Minister seeking clarity on whether the current Police Ombudsman was subject to developed vetting, whether that clearance remained active and what safeguards applied to the accessing of highly sensitive or national security-related material. The response failed to answer those…

  10. Debate contribution: Energy, Food and Environmental Security: Biomethane

    • Private Members' Business

    Last week, the Assembly failed to support a motion to cost the net zero madness that each Department is chasing. One week later, we have the Ulster Unionist Party, which wants to simply tinker with the climate change targets, now pushing the debate to create the most expensive form of green energy. I cannot help but…

  11. Debate contribution: Energy, Food and Environmental Security: Biomethane

    • Private Members' Business

    I have listened intently to what some Members have said, but is this not the same argument that we heard for hydrogen, which is that it could be used as a blend for natural gas? Is this the new hydrogen? Is this the new way in which the Assembly wants to head?

  12. Debate contribution: Excess Deaths Linked to Long Emergency Department Waits

    • Question for Urgent Oral Answer

    My office was contacted recently by a constituent whose family member had two spells in the South West Acute Hospital. In spite of being in hospital for over a week and a half, the lady was never admitted to a ward, spending the entire stay either on a trolley or in a chair in A&E. In the final few days, she was in a…

  13. Debate contribution: Climate Action Plan 2023-27

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    Minister, your draft climate action plan stipulates a reduction by 2030 of 18% in dairy cattle, 17% in beef cattle and 18% in sheep, pigs and poultry. Can you give the agriculture industry·— remember: that is the one that you are meant to champion — a commitment that your action plan will not include stock cuts?

  14. Debate contribution: Marriage and Civil Partnership Bill: Second Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I will make a number of general points about the Bill and seek further clarity from the Minister on why it was introduced. At a surface level, there is much in the Bill that will find favour with the House. There is a degree of common sense in clause 5, which raises the minimum age for marriage from 16 to 18. We…
