Text

I will interpret that as a "No" to the question of getting those proposals by the end of 2025. Staying with civic engagement, there is a commitment in 'New Decade, New Approach' to bring forward one to two issues a year for civic engagement, including one citizens' assembly. We are halfway through that decade. Will TEO deliver a citizens' assembly next year? Does the deputy First Minister agree that reform of the institutions is the logical first topic of discussion at that citizens' assembly? Without the institutions, we cannot deliver for any of our people.
