Members observed two minutes' silence. Assembly Business Matter of the Day Mr Speaker: Before we commence the sitting, I Centenary of Northern Ireland inform Members that I have been advised that Mr Gary Middleton will not introduce the Mr Speaker: Mr Jim Allister has been given Adjournment topic today. The sitting will adjourn leave to make a statement on the centenary of immediately after the motion to approve the Northern Ireland, which fulfils the criteria set out corporate insolvency regulations. in Standing Order 24. If other Members wish to be called, they should rise in their place and continue to do so. All Members who are called shall have up to three minutes to speak on the subject. I remind Members that I will not take any points of order on this or any other matter until the item of business has finished. Mr Allister: Yesterday marked the centenary of Northern Ireland as a separate political and legal entity within the United Kingdom. Therefore, it also marked the centenary of the United Kingdom in the form that we currently know it. That, for many of us, is an occasion for considerable thankfulness and celebration. Northern Ireland came into existence and continues to exist because of the will of its people. That is despite external and internal aggression. Externally, of course, for decades, our nearest southern neighbour overtly claimed our territory and allowed its territory to be used to facilitate the launch of terrorist attacks, and, internally, of course, we have had the besetting of vicious terrorism. Northern Ireland is, indeed, a triumph of democracy over terrorism. Having faced all that vicious terrorism, I want today to salute the memory of the many who selflessly gave their life to stand between the law-abiding people of Northern Ireland and the evildoers in our midst. Of course, Northern Ireland has also been subjected to relentless insult and vilification, including by those who tell us what the standards of respect are that are expected of us all, but Northern Ireland is still here and is flourishing as part of the United Kingdom. Scholars, sportsmen, inventors, generals, captains of industry, leaders in medicine: we have proudly produced them all and much more 1 Tuesday 4 May 2021 besides. I am proud of Northern Ireland.

Looking forward, as in the past, we cannot be complacent to the threat that faces us. Northern Ireland is a place that we can all Vigilance served us in the past. Vigilance will rightly call home. Northern Ireland is a place serve us in the future, along with the that should be welcoming to all. That is the determination to defeat any threat that comes spirit in which I look to the next 100 years. I look along, including the current threat of the to it with positivity, and I invite colleagues, yes, iniquitous protocol. to reflect on the past but to look forward with optimism and to mark the centenary with the Mr Speaker: The Member's time is up. respect that it deserves. Mr Allister: That determination against — Mr O'Dowd: Quite clearly, there will be different perspectives on the events of 100 years ago, and it would be quite easy to rise to the bait of Mr Speaker: The Member's time is up. Mr Allister's usual angry performance.

Undoubtedly, Northern Ireland created division, and it created a state that means a lot of different things to many people, systematically discriminated against a large but one thing that we, regardless of community proportion of its citizens. It created laws such as background, can all take huge pride in is its the Special Powers Act that were the envy of people. Be it in war, on the sporting field, in the apartheid South African regime.

  • The New Normal
    The New Normal A project by St Dominic’s Grammar School, Belfast, and Friends’ School, Lisburn. November 2020-May 2021 1 What is the new normal? This is not a great time to be young. No one would wish to experience the current pandemic. There are some things – such as the search for a new vaccine – which we can’t control. However, young people in their communities have the ability to support one another and make the situation more bearable both for themselves and for all of us. Our aim is to give young people a voice during the current pandemic and to be recognised as part of the solution rather than part of the problem. We provide our participants with a platform to work together and come up with fresh ideas, based on their own observations. They focus on what has changed in their homes, families, or communities. What is working and what is not? Our role is to support those with whom we work throughout the development of their ideas. We have established partnerships with organisations with specialist skills to support and mentor the participants. They include Young Enterprise Northern Ireland, The Oh Yeah! Music Centre, Start 360, Suicide Down to Zero, Fresh Ideas and Stranmillis University College. Our network combines a unique pan Northern Ireland approach, supported by strong local grassroots involvement. As a result, we have the capacity, expertise and flexibility to back almost any idea with which the course members come up. Who is taking part? We are a group of 14 sixth form politics students from St Dominic’s Grammar School, Belfast and Friends’ Grammar School, Lisburn.
