The Member has just acknowledged that an inquiry set up by the UK Government, under the auspices of the Secretary of State, does not have the power to compel. Can he elucidate how he expects me to compel the Irish Government to do anything?

Saturday 15 August 1998 is a date that is etched on the hearts and minds of many people in Omagh, throughout West Tyrone and beyond. That afternoon saw the fragile peace in Northern Ireland shattered when the Real IRA detonated a car bomb in Market Street, which killed 31 innocent people, including unborn twins, and…

I thank the Member for giving way. I saw that he was nearly at the end of his speech and wanted to get an intervention in before he gets there. The Member has not addressed what the inquiry would achieve. If there is no ability to make the Irish state compellable, what would a public inquiry by the UK Government…

I beg to move Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. Over the past month, we have watched and listened to victims, victims' families, police officers and people from the medical emergency services recount their stories of the harrowing and horrific bombing in Omagh on 15 August 1998. They have done so with clarity, courage,…

Sorry, I will just correct that. My point was that the war on drugs in the UK has failed. Drugs are available in cities, towns and villages across Northern Ireland. The war-on-drugs policies do not work, and prohibition has not worked: we need to move on and try something else.

Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I acknowledge the overwhelming impact that drugs can have across our society. When I say "drugs", I am not talking about illegal, illicit or prescription drugs, because all drugs can be dangerous if not taken under medical supervision. We need to be really clear about that,…

Ketamine can no longer be dismissed as just a party drug: it is a serious public health risk. We have already heard about its severe health impacts and its role in spiking incidents. Access to the drug, along with others such as pregabalin, is often just a click or a direct message (DM) away. Both are frequently and…

I will start today, as many others have, by paying tribute to Sandra Larmour and her family's campaign to raise awareness on the issue of ketamine, as the motion rightly references. Jeni Larmour, her daughter, sadly passed away after consuming ketamine and alcohol, and Sandra has channelled her grief into tirelessly…

Today's motion is important, and I thank the Members for tabling it. I, too, recognise the work of Sandra Larmour in the aftermath of losing her daughter, Jeni, in highlighting the important issue and the impact that drugs have on the user, their family and the wider community. I also take this opportunity to thank…

I welcome the opportunity to speak on the motion. Ketamine, originally developed as an anaesthetic for medical use, has become increasingly common in recreational drug use. It has a reputation for inducing dissociation, hallucinations and a distorted sense of reality, but the consequences of ketamine misuse are far…

Illegal drugs create many victims. Those who find themselves addicted to illegal drugs are victims. Addiction is insidious, and it destroys their lives. Their families face dealing with that drug addiction as they watch their loved ones slowly dissolve in front of them. They are also victims. Without a doubt, we must…

I thank the DUP for tabling the motion. Tragically, 18-year-old Jeni Larmour died on 3 October 2020 after consuming alcohol and ketamine on her first night at university. She was a former deputy head girl at the Royal School Armagh and clearly had her whole life in front of her. I cannot imagine the pain of such a…

Does the Member agree that we need to widen access to vital health-led services here, including mental health provision and drug treatment services, particularly in my constituency in the north-west? Additionally, how will we tackle poverty and inequality? That core area of work could have a meaningful and lasting…

I thank the Member opposite for opening the debate and for tabling the motion. The pressing issue of ketamine misuse is a concern that resonates deeply in all our communities. Sadly, drug use is all too common, probably in everyone's constituency, if we are to speak openly about it. It continues to spread the disease…

I beg to move Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. This is an important subject, and, from the outset, I commend the tireless campaign of Sandra Larmour, whose advocacy, born from a profound and tragic loss, has illuminated the urgent need for increased awareness and a reclassification of ketamine.

Thank you. I thank everyone for their constructive participation in today's debate. I was Chair of the Committee when the 'Breaking the Grass Ceiling' report was produced.

Many times, when we talk in the Chamber about agriculture, we recognise that farming is the backbone of our rural economy. Farming is absolutely massive and so important, yet half of the population who live rurally face systemic and cultural barriers to entering it and thriving in it. Women are significantly…

I thank the Member for taking an intervention. Like her, I am a farmer's daughter, and my mother was a farmer's wife. I absolutely agree about the support that is required. The Minister should consider what work can be done with schools and in other education settings to encourage young women to enter the sector and…
