Text
I welcome the opportunity to speak on the motion to mark Eating Disorders Awareness Week. I thank the chair of the all-party group and the other DUP Members who tabled the motion. Nicola Armstrong and the team at the Beat support group have done some fantastic work. I apologise that I have not made it to any of the APG meetings. The group is relatively new.
