RT @curtis_irvine: As we seek to tackle the climate crisis at a global level, it is vital that we take local actions that facilitate more active travel. I will continue to push for improved active travel infrastructure in Bangor West and beyond alongside Alliance colleagues.

RT @PaulaJaneB: I am deeply saddened by the news that a child has lost her life to Strep A. My thoughts are with her family at this incredibly difficult time.
I would urge parents to be on the lookout for sore throat, headache, fever, and a rash with a sandpapery feel.

@Reciprocity5904 @BelTel One for @JudiciaryNI. Ultimately, the penalties exist in law, but it's the independent judiciary who has the responsibility for sentencing.

@Joancorrigan1 @allianceparty @gordonlyons1 @PoliceServiceNI @JudiciaryNI That's not what I said at all, Joan. I clarified what was and wasn't DoJ, as there seemed to be a misunderstanding that the department/minister had responsibility for tribunals/judiciary. If you want to email further detail, I'll see what, if any, advice I may be able to offer.

@Joancorrigan1 @allianceparty @gordonlyons1 @PoliceServiceNI @JudiciaryNI Employment tribunals are facilitated by DOJ but are fully independent of it in their operation.
I'm no longer justice minister, but this isn't an area over which I had vires.

@FionaQuigs @KellieTurtle Sadly, if people make potentially defamatory comments, which others take at face value, there's little alternative.
