Text

Thank you. Minister, some years ago, when firearms licensing went online, we were told that it would resolve the problems and make the service more effective, efficient and streamlined, free up personnel and resolve the backlog issues. What has gone wrong?

41 words. Text as published by the Northern Ireland Assembly.

Part of an exchange

This follow-up belongs to: Topical question AQT 2334/22-27.

Assessment

Not analysed

This is the same MLA’s follow-up within the exchange on their own question. It is analysed together with that question and is not counted separately, so one question is never counted twice.
