Patsy McGlone: Thank you, indeed, Chris, for your very kind words to us all. I have already told you in person, but my sincerest best wishes to you on whatever path you choose to go when you leave here. I have no doubt that it will be a successful role. Question put and agreed to. Resolved: That the Fair Employment (School Teachers) Bill [NIA 51/17-22] do now pass.
Patsy McGlone: The Bill has passed Final Stage and stands referred to the Speaker. [Applause.] It is a pity that it could not be like this all the time [Laughter] but anyway. I think that most people have got the message about that bit. I ask Members to take their ease until we move to the next item of business.
Patsy McGlone: The Business Committee has agreed that there should be no time limit for the debate.
Patsy McGlone: Thank you, Trevor. I have already wished you all the best for your retirement, if that is what you want to call it. Please enjoy the rest of your time. It will be a lot different to this political forum, but have a good time; I am sure that you will. We have worked well together on many things during my time in the Assembly. All the best to you, Trevor. On that point, I come to the Bill's...
Patsy McGlone: There being no Members listed, I call the Minister, Mr Robin Swann.
Patsy McGlone: Sorry, Minister. Do you mind? I see that Mr Carroll has indicated.
Patsy McGlone: Glaoim ar Aisling Reilly le críoch a chur leis an díospóireacht ar an Chéim Dheiridh den Bhille. I now call Aisling Reilly to conclude the debate on the Final Stage of the Bill.
Patsy McGlone: The Final Stage of the Hospital Parking Charges Bill has passed, and the Bill stands referred to the Speaker. Comhghairdeas leat. [Applause.] Members should take their ease until we move to the next item of business.
Patsy McGlone: I call Chris Lyttle to formally move the Bill's Final Stage, please.
Patsy McGlone: Chris, all I want is for you to say, "So moved". [Laughter.]
Patsy McGlone: Thank you for that. The Business Committee has agreed that there should be no time limit on the debate. I call Chris Lyttle to open the debate. Are you good to go?
Patsy McGlone: Más maith leat labhairt chomh maith, tá fáilte romhat. If you wish to speak, you are welcome to do so.
Patsy McGlone: Before we proceed to the Question, I remind Members that the motion requires cross-community support. Question put and agreed to. Resolved (with cross-community support): That Standing Order 42(1) be suspended in respect of the Final Stage of the Hospital Parking Charges Bill [NIA 40/17-22].
Patsy McGlone: The Business Committee has agreed that there should be no time limit on the debate.
