This week, I met with BORMAC at Stormont to discuss upskilling, automation, infrastructure underinvestment in our region, and the ongoing pressures on the manufacturing sector, including high operational costs and logistics.

Great to meet with the Northern Ireland Social Care Council this week and to hear about the work of social workers and the pressures the sector faces. The sector employs over 48,000 staff who all make a huge positive difference to the quality of life for many.
