  4. Debate contribution: Supporting Service Leavers, Veterans and their Families

    • Private Members' Business

    It is fitting that the motion comes before the House on the Assembly's final sitting day before Remembrance Sunday. In a few days, men, women and children across Northern Ireland will stand in silence. We will lay wreaths and honour courage, sacrifice and duty. Remembrance, however, cannot be a mere sentiment; it must…

  5. Debate contribution: Deaths, Still-Births and Baby Loss Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank Members for their tone. They might not agree with the amendments that I have tabled, but we have had a good discussion on them. I trust that Members see the heart that is behind the amendments that I have brought to the House. Regardless of the outcome of the debate, due to my amendments being tabled, the Bill…

  6. Debate contribution: Deaths, Still-Births and Baby Loss Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Absolutely, yes, those words will appear in the Bill. That is the purpose of the amendment. In previous debates, abortion was not counted. The amendment is to ensure that abortion is given its place in the Bill so that, if those who have suffered an abortion, whether through a medical termination or through their…

  7. Debate contribution: Deaths, Still-Births and Baby Loss Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I thank the Member for giving way. It is a misrepresentation to state that the term "abortion" will appear. It is a case of opening up the regulations so that those who have suffered an abortion can and will have the right to apply for a certificate. Nobody is saying that the term "abortion" will be on certificates.…

  8. Debate contribution: County Hall, Ballymena: DOF Staff

    • Oral Answers to Questions

    I thank the Minister for his response in outlining the numbers not only of his own staff but the numbers of staff from other Departments at County Hall. Minister, the grounds of County Hall have not been maintained and have become neglected over recent years and months. Can you set out today when the Department will…

  9. Debate contribution: Deaths, Still-Births and Baby Loss Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Thank you very much for bringing me in. To be clear, that amendment was tabled, because, during the debate at the Bill's Second Stage, the Deputy Speaker said that abortion does not come into this. I was motivated to introduce abortion into the Bill, because it is part of the process and should be included. Given that…

  10. Debate contribution: Deaths, Still-Births and Baby Loss Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I am happy to clarify that that is, absolutely, the intention. It is only for a mother or parent who wishes to have the certificate. We need to be clear that there will be no compulsion: the option will be there for families who want that recognition.

  11. Debate contribution: Deaths, Still-Births and Baby Loss Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    I understand the point that Mr O'Toole is trying to make, but cast your mind back to the Bill's Second Stage and the Deputy Speaker's remarks and his ruling during that debate. Do you not believe, based on the Deputy Speaker's comments, that clarity is needed in the Bill?

  12. Debate contribution: Deaths, Still-Births and Baby Loss Bill: Consideration Stage

    • Executive Committee Business

    Thank you very much, Mr Speaker. As you pointed out, the first item on the Marshalled List is my intention to oppose clause 8 standing part of the Bill. Linked to that is my opposition to the schedule. My opposition is consistent with that of my party, a founding principle of which is support for and promotion of…

  13. Debate contribution: Independent Review of Environmental Governance in Northern Ireland

    • Ministerial Statement

    Minister, I will be upfront: I am highly sceptical of an independent environmental protection agency, as was my predecessor. In your statement, we are told: "The costs of inaction are simply too great". That is a self-confessed, damning indictment of inaction from the Minister's Department. How will an additional…

  14. Member's statement: Parliament Buildings: Vandalism

    • Members' Statements

    Thank you very much, Mr Speaker. Over recent weeks, concerns have been brought to my attention regarding vandalism in Parliament Buildings. It is behaviour that would disgrace any workplace, never mind the seat of the Government. I refer specifically to the deliberate flooding of the toilets in this Building. On one…
