  3. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    Thank you, Deputy Speaker. I thank the Member for South Belfast Paula Bradshaw for securing the Adjournment debate and for setting its tone. It was refreshing to have the conversations that we have engaged in outside the heat of yesterday around specific decisions. Mr O'Toole has left the Chamber, but I was reminded…

  4. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    I thank the Member for giving way. We are now having an important and respectful debate on the subject, but, going by that theory and the statistics that he has quoted on sectors, segregation and traditional communities, many of the integrated schools that the Minister referred to yesterday would fall into those…

  5. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    I thank the Member for giving way. I will follow on from Mr Brooks's point about what is special about ethos. I could apply the ethos that Ms Nicholl described to many schools in my constituency. In fact, many parents choose those schools on the basis of the ethos that they provide. Does the Member accept that what he…

  6. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    I am grateful for the opportunity to speak in the debate, and I thank my party colleague for securing an Adjournment debate on the topic. My colleagues and others have spoken in detail about the South Belfast-specific issues. I do not pretend that I will be able to add much to that. However, at the outset, I want to…

  7. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    Members, I think that we all agree that children deserve a fair chance to go to school and to learn and develop the skills that they need in order to thrive into adult life. It is a priority that all children and young people in Northern Ireland are educated together. The journey towards understanding and shared…

  8. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    I understand what you say. I am trying to think of the best way to answer it. I would love for you to come with me to Lagan some time and meet some of the pupils. They will talk to you about how everything is intentional. The integration ethos is through everything. I really love how — I think that it was in the last…

  9. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    It is a genuine question, and it probably comes out of some of the discussions that have been taking place this week. It is something that I have not grasped yet. What exactly is it about the ethos of integrated schools that is explicitly different from our other schools? Often, when you ask the question, you…

  10. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    I thank my constituency colleague Paula Bradshaw for securing today's Adjournment debate. It is really good to have the Minister here. Thank you. South Belfast is one of the most diverse constituencies in Northern Ireland, and it is an honour to represent that community. In South Belfast, we know that our diversity is…

  11. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    I thank the Member for giving way. Perhaps he could provide a bit more clarity. By "segregation", does he mean different sectors? As was noted in the debate yesterday — it is appropriate that we put it on record again today — so many of our schools from those different sectors have naturally integrated. In fact, as…

  12. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    I am pleased that Paula Bradshaw secured the Adjournment debate and hope that we hear from the Minister about what he is doing to support integrated education in South Belfast. Like Paula, I am not going to use the debate as an opportunity to relitigate some of what we robustly debated yesterday and in the days before…

  13. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    I thank Paula for securing this important debate and for discussing the issue in South Belfast. It is clear that forward planning to meet school pressures, especially for nursery and primary places, is essential. We recognise that challenge in an area such as South Belfast. Our schools do an excellent job despite the…

  14. Debate contribution: Integrated Education Provision: South Belfast

    Thank you, Deputy Speaker. I will not need anywhere near that, but I appreciate Members taking the time to join me in the Chamber this evening to debate the topic. I want to focus specifically on the issues facing integrated education provision in South Belfast. I do not believe that, during this debate, we need to…

  15. Debate contribution: Assembly Business

    On a point of order, Mr Deputy Speaker. Public trust in these institutions is something that all Members should strive to achieve. The Clerk of the Assembly has just provided all Members with a 40-page report on the employment practices of Sinn Féin and Mr Michael McMonagle. The report concludes that Mr McMonagle was…

  16. Debate contribution: Gender-responsive Budgeting

    Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. I thank all those who contributed to the debate. The contributions have clearly illustrated that gender-responsive budgeting has a long way to go. In the Good Friday Agreement, a commitment was made to the full and equal participation of women in public life. More than a quarter of a…

  17. Debate contribution: Gender-responsive Budgeting

    I thank the Member for giving way. He shares my frustration with this place voting through motions that are not acted on. I certainly intend to hold the Minister to account for the delivery of gender-responsive budgeting. She has indicated her broad support for it. The Member can take my assurance that we will hold…

  18. Debate contribution: Gender-responsive Budgeting

    I thank the leader of the Opposition for tabling the motion. To quote his words, I will, hopefully, offer "constructive opposition" to his Opposition day debate. I think that the entire House is united in wanting to end gender inequalities. I look at my constituency of North Belfast. Why is it that a woman born in the…
