  2. Debate contribution: Drug-related Deaths: East Antrim

    I thank you, Minister, for giving way. I will make it brief, as I do not want to eat into your time. Do you agree that Right Care, Right Person becomes even more important in relation to stigma? It should not be the police that respond to people who are victims and addicts. We should have a health service response for…

  3. Debate contribution: Drug-related Deaths: East Antrim

    Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. I thank Mr Donnelly and everybody who contributed to the debate. The statistics have been rehearsed. We can all translate them into an understanding of the human cost of substance use. That human cost impacts on individuals, families and communities. I acknowledge that every life lost is…

  4. Debate contribution: Drug-related Deaths: East Antrim

    I will not detain Members too long. On behalf of the SDLP, I support our having the debate. My motivation for speaking this evening comes from reflecting on my time as a youth worker nine years ago. There was a group of about 20 or 25 young people who grew up through the centre. They had been there for about 15 years…

  5. Debate contribution: Drug-related Deaths: East Antrim

    Thank you, Danny, for raising the important issue of drug-related deaths in the East Antrim area and for securing the Adjournment debate on what is an important and concerning topic.

  7. Debate contribution: Drug-related Deaths: East Antrim

    I thank my East Antrim colleague Danny Donnelly for bringing this important topic to the Assembly. Illegal drugs and the misuse of prescription drugs are serious issues across not just East Antrim but the whole of Northern Ireland. Rising addiction is not just an East Antrim issue. Cannabis, cocaine, synthetic drugs…

  8. Debate contribution: Drug-related Deaths: East Antrim

    Death is incredibly difficult in any circumstances, but it can be even more harrowing and often more distressing when it comes as a result of drug use. Unfortunately, too many people still lose their lives as a result of drugs across Northern Ireland. Behind every statistic is a human being — a son, daughter, mother…

    I thank the Member who has brought such an important topic to the House, allowing us to discuss an issue that affects every corner or our community: the tragic rise in drug-related deaths in East Antrim.

  10. Debate contribution: Drug-related Deaths: East Antrim

    I preface the debate by saying that East Antrim is no better or worse than anywhere else in Northern Ireland or, indeed, the UK. The issue of drug-related harm affects every part of our region. However, East Antrim has recently witnessed several tragic drug-related deaths, alongside a BBC documentary that showed the…

  11. Debate contribution: North/South Bodies: Funding

    I thank the Member for giving way. I am going to give away my age now, but I remember, in 2007, before I was elected, the very gentleman who sits in front of me and who is now Finance Minister was part of a discussion about fiscal freedom. A motion came before the House, and the SDLP did not think that we were ready…

  12. Debate contribution: North/South Bodies: Funding

    Having listened to what the Member said about an ideological or quasi-ideological narrative to obfuscate why the blockage is taking place at the heel of the hunt, I ask this: does the Member agree that, in the midst of all the economic and social challenges that this society faces, with families who cannot pay their…
