We must know the parameters that intelligence agencies work in with our PSNI. Have overstepped the mark recently in terms of journalist work which is fundamentally undemocratic. Does Annex 3 of St Andrews still cut it??? The SDLP

Our first #APG presentation is from Greg Miller and Anna Fay on the Lisburn #FENO pilot, showing the benefits to people with asthma and the wider health system in Northern Ireland of rolling out this diagnostic tool

Good to be at the policing board today to hear a presentation on maintaining the highest possible standards of conduct from officers. Thankfully, most adhere to these codes.

I spoke on BBC Evening Extra about how a new Ireland must belong to everyone- not just one tradition or identity. Letโ€™s build a shared, European future that tackles real issues north & south and reflects the The SDLP mission to #BuildSomethingNew ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐ŸŒน

Whether it's the A5 or Casement, All-Island Rail or our crumbling wastewater, the Executive is failing to deliver. These and other vital projects were supposed to be in an Investment Strategy. But the Executive still hasn't published one. The Opposition is demanding one today.

Good to see fireworks done the right way ๐ŸŽ† I welcome this response from Justice Minister Naomi Long MLA Newry, Mourne & Down tops the list for most #fireworks displays in the North! Essential that anyone using fireworks is licenced to do so, and respectful of neighbours and pets.
