Well out of my comfort zone this evening @cambridgeunion Looking forward to conversation

Brussels visit finished - two days, nine meetings ranging from UK Government officials, Irish MEPs, the European Economic & Social Committee and the Office of the NI Executive in Brussels. Good exchange of views and demonstration of need to have constructive relationship with EU

What a week! I knew @cooperationirl Ireland were making a big difference in many different areas but after 5 days on the job, I have only seen a tiny proportion of their work and the impact they are making. Looking forward to sharing some of this work over the coming months.

Delighted to record this Policy 360: Unplugged podcast reflecting on some of my expereiences as Victims & Survivors Commissioner. Apart from mixing up the difference between a Bill and Act I think it went ok. open.spotify.com/episode/64i…

Useful evidence session @CommonsNIAC highlighted the need to improve communication and streamline the victim payment scheme. Also encouraged them to write to @chhcalling to request removal of backdating deadline.

Thank you everyone for your support today as I announced my move to Cooperation Ireland. This was a tough decision, but there is a fantastic team @nivictimscom who will continue to advocate for victims & survivors and I will do everything in my new role to support them.

I’m going to @TheBikeShed’s upcoming Space. Will you join too? xitter.cf/i/spaces/1BdGYrBqOAlJX

Thank you @taramillstv for sharing a very personal story. So important that it’s told and the positive impact will be a lasting legacy to Richard x
