Notice Of Motions
14 Councillor Molloy to move:
That this council carefully consider all Council organised events and where possible and practical allocate ‘quiet hours’ to facilitate visits and attendance by children & young adults with disability requirements and special needs. Further to that, the Council further liaise and consult with local special learning centres, disability groups and the National Autistic Society in order to facilitate visits to events on both a group and individual basis.
15 Councillor McAleer to move:
This Council acknowledges the Employers For Childcare 10th Annual Childcare Survey which is based on research with over 3,600 parents and childcare providers and is the most extensive study of its kind in Northern Ireland. The report reveals that the average cost of a full-time childcare place in Northern Ireland is £166 per week and that half of all families are spending more than 20% of their overall household income on childcare -a figure that rises to 63% for lone parent households.
 
Council further notes that three years ago, parties in the Assembly unanimously supported an SDLP proposal to provide 20 hours free universal childcare with a plan for an increase to 30 hours. This Council supports the call for vital and urgent reform of investment in our childcare sector. This research provides a robust evidence base highlighting why childcare needs to be a key and immediate priority for any re-formed Executive. This Council resolves to write to all Political Party Leaders to ask them to support 30 hours basic free childcare provision for working parents.
16 Councillor Hughes to move:
This Council acknowledges the scale of the climate crisis and the impact it will have on people and communities in Northern Ireland; resolves to establish an all-party working group on climate change resilience exploring how we can mitigate this crisis and protect our citizens from the existing and future effects of climate breakdown and; investigate measures the council can take to limit its impact on climate change.
