Recent appearances

  • Written Answers — Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: Agriculture: Northern Ireland 31 Oct 2019

    To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether it is his policy that payments to farmers in Northern Ireland will be comparable to Common Agricultural Policy payments after 2022.
  • Northern Ireland Budget Bill 30 Oct 2019

    As I mentioned in Northern Ireland questions today, many of our MLAs are doing a fantastic job through their offices. It is important that we keep that representation for the general public.
  • Northern Ireland: MLAs’ Salaries 30 Oct 2019

    There is a lot of talk about reducing the salaries of MLAs, but I am sure the Secretary of State will agree with me that many, many MLAs work hard in their constituencies to provide constituency services through their offices. That is an important factor.
