  3. Debate contribution: DFC: Surplus Buildings and Land

    Not right now, but I hope to be in a position to do so shortly. I am bringing a paper to the Executive to highlight options around how we can better use public land to make sure that we meet our social housing targets.

  5. Debate contribution: DFC: Surplus Buildings and Land

    My Department owns six sites in Antrim, five in Ballymena and 12 in Craigavon. That is land that was vested under the New Towns Act 1965 for the development of Antrim, Ballymena and Craigavon. My Department also owns a former railway track site in Coalisland, which is deemed surplus. The Housing Executive has two…

  6. Debate contribution: Arts Sector: Funding

    I am sorry. That was not my suggestion at all. I simply laid out the figures. I am not saying in any way that funding should be removed. Those were her words — that was her suggestion — not mine. I said that bigger cities in Northern Ireland, including Belfast and Londonderry, are often the bases for arts…

  10. Debate contribution: Arts Sector: Funding

    Minister, you failed to answer the question that my colleague asked about whether you would commit to visiting the Echo Echo Dance Theatre Company, which has lost 100% of its funding. It is not the first time that you have raised the issue of Derry getting too much money for the arts —.

  16. Debate contribution: Cricket: DFC Support

    That is an incredible opportunity for us, and I have instructed officials to work to make sure that we can deliver in that area. It is always good to see the interest that is shown in Northern Ireland when competitions are held here. I have met Cricket Ireland on that matter, and officials are collaborating with…

  18. Debate contribution: Cricket: DFC Support

    I am grateful to the Member for his question. It is absolutely right that we fund all sports in Northern Ireland, especially those that are growing and those that are trying to attract more girls and women into the sport. I am delighted to hear about the progress that is being made in that area. The Member will be…

  19. Debate contribution: Cricket: DFC Support

    I thank the Minister for his answer, and I declare an interest as the president of Carrickfergus Cricket Club. As he will know, Ireland is a test nation — we are all very proud of that — and many of our cricketers operate at the highest level. I am sure that he will join me in recognising the great work of our cricket…

  20. Debate contribution: Cricket: DFC Support

    Sport NI has confirmed to me the support that it has provided. Through Crowdfunder schemes such as Creating Opportunities and Project Reboot, £122,500 of lottery funding has been provided to cricket clubs in the past three years, including £30,000 so far for 2025-26. Under the Sports System Investment - Governing…

  21. Debate contribution: Queen's Parade, Bangor: Redevelopment

    Accessibility is key to everything that we do in the Department. It would not make sense for us not to have such provision in place. As time goes on, I will be happy to update the Member on the progress that is made.

  22. Debate contribution: Queen's Parade, Bangor: Redevelopment

    Minister, as well as the Queen's Parade redevelopment scheme, you are responsible for the disability strategy. Will the new development be accessible to everybody in Bangor and have a Changing Places toilet and an adequate number of accessible parking spaces?

  23. Debate contribution: Queen's Parade, Bangor: Redevelopment

    Yes, he can thank me for that. I am delighted to get the project over the line, because the people of Bangor have waited far too long for it. I know that it was of concern to Members, but we have got there: a legally binding agreement is in place. I assure the Member that I will have the same laser focus on making…

  24. Debate contribution: Queen's Parade, Bangor: Redevelopment

    Minister, will you continue to provide detailed oversight of the ongoing delivery of that major capital programme over the next number of years? Will you continue to look at the issues as they arise? I thank the Minister for his commitment to making the project happen.

  25. Debate contribution: Queen's Parade, Bangor: Redevelopment

    The Member complains about PR and headlines yet wants me to dress up for the event. On this occasion, I strongly disagree with the Member. The past few weeks have not simply been about PR or headlines. Rather, intensive work has gone on over the past few months. I committed to getting the project sorted. Mr Dunne had…
