(AQW 7218/11-15) Mr P Robinson and Mr M McGuinness (The First Minister and deputy First Minister): We intend to carry out a public consultation later in the year on our proposals for a Strategy to promote the availability of good quality, accessible, integrated and affordable childcare provision. Department’s Equality Unit Mr Allister asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister to detail the current (i) number; and (ii) annual cost of staff employed in their Department’s Equality Unit. (AQW 7654/11-15) Mr P Robinson and Mr M McGuinness: The OFMDFM Equality and Human Rights Unit currently employs five members of staff: The total annual staff cost for the Unit is £212,238. Childcare Strategy Mr Lyttle asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister for an update on the development of a Childcare Strategy. (AQO 1216/11-15) Mr P Robinson and Mr M McGuinness: We are leading on the development of a Childcare Strategy in support of the draft Programme for Government action to implement a strategy for integrated and affordable childcare. This action requires co-operation and joint working across departments and agencies. In December 2011, the first meeting of a high level working group, the Childcare Strategy Group, was convened. This Working Group is chaired by a senior OFMDFM official and comprises senior officials from key departments involved in childcare provision. Two further meetings of the Working Group were held in January. The work of this Group will take account of the views of stakeholders, as well as other relevant information and research, and will put forward proposals to us on the development of the Childcare Strategy. The intention is to carry out a public consultation later in the year on proposals for a Strategy to promote the availability of good quality, accessible, integrated and affordable childcare provision. The Executive has allocated additional funding of £12 million across the Comprehensive Spending Review Period to support the development of the Childcare Strategy. This funding will not replace existing baseline provision for the delivery of childcare services. WA 1 Friday 16 March 2012 Written Answers Public Services Available to Older People Mr D McIlveen asked the First Minister and deputy First Minister how they ensure that older people are aware of all the public services available to improve their quality of life; and how much funding has been allocated for this purpose in each of the last five years. (AQW 8154/11-15) Mr P Robinson and Mr M McGuinness: We appointed Dame Joan Harbison as Older People’s Advocate from December 2008 until December 2011. Dame Joan Harbison worked closely with the age sector and departments and highlighted the importance of reaching out to older people to ensure they are aware of what they are entitled to. She also attended many meetings with older people and used her regular newsletters to advise older people on the services available to help them. In November 2011, we appointed Claire Keatinge as the Commissioner for Older People. The Commissioner will encourage best practice in the treatment of older people and has advised the Department on the most appropriate methodologies to reach older people who are difficult to contact. The Department also engages regularly with organisations representing the interests and rights of older people, including Age NI and the Age Sector Platform, and Executive Ministers support the work of the Pensioners Parliament.

Nearby: Glenarm (0 kms) Shop (0 kms) Restaurant (18 kms) Please Note: The second floor of the property is accessed by a spiral staircase. Capacité d'accueil 2 - Glenarm, Antrim Chiens non admis. « The Barbican » (La Barbacane : on désignait pendant le moyen âge, par ce mot, un ouvrage de fortification avancé, de forme circulaire ou semi-circulaire, qui protégeait un passage, une porte ou poterne, et qui permettait à la garnison d'une forteresse de se réunir sur un point saillant à couvert pour faire des sorties, pour protéger une retraite ou l'introduction d'un poste de secours.) situé derrière un vieux pont de pierre qui enjambe la rivière Glenarm, est une charmante tour avec des fenêtres gothiques et un escalier de pierre en colimaçon. Construit en 1825 à partir de basalte local, ce château médiéval miniature est un refuge romantique idéal situé dans l'un des plus anciens villages de l'Ulster. À proximité: Glenarm (0 kms) Boutique (0 kms) Restaurant (18 kms) A Noter: Le deuxième étage de la propriété est accessible par un escalier en colimaçon. History : The story behind the building of this remarkable early nineteenth century gateway is a highly romantic one. Randal William McDonnell, the sixth earl of Antrim, died in 1791, leaving no sons, so his estates and titles were divided between his three daughters, with the provision that they would all ultimately pass to their senior male offspring.
