Stormont Sources

Is Stormont Holiday Hunger Bill Unfunded?


Listen Later

In this episode of Stormont Sources, David McCann, Tim Cairns, and Michael McKernan go inside the chamber to discuss the latest political developments at Stormont.


We take a closer look into Danny Baker’s Holiday Hunger Bill discussing whether it is a vital lifeline for 90,000 children, or a fiscally "irresponsible" use of a Private Member’s Bill? The panel also explores the tension between Education Minister Paul Givan and the bill’s supporters, while also raising questions as to whether the Assembly’s legislative process needs a more “Westminster-style” approach.


Throughout the second half, the panel responds to our listeners' questions.


DUP vs Sinn Féin: Are the DUP outperforming Sinn Féin ministers in the Executive?

The Micheál Martin Factor: How does the Taoiseach’s "Shared Island" approach compare to previous leaders?

Constitutional Debates: Does reconciliation need to come first before a United Ireland?
