I’m delighted for Ivor. Thoroughly enjoyed working with him in my time in DoJ. Richly deserved.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our previous Board Chair, Ms Carmel McKinney OBE. Carmel dedicated many years of service to NIFRS, bringing extensive expertise and experience as a leader to the role. Our thoughts and sympathies are with Carmel’s family and friends.
Michael - many thanks for your hospitality today. A really enjoyable visit, and lots of food for thought. I look forward to taking the conversation forward. R.

The worst of times often brings out the best of us. Austin certainly was the best of us, and just knowing he was on our team always meant we felt better about our chances, and the work we were doing. Sad times - but a wonderful legacy.

For my part, while I am proud to have been one of them, as a citizen of this place I offer each and everyone of my colleagues my sincere thanks for their work and endeavour. You are all stars, and we are in your debt. R. (4/4)
This has not been easy – and we would not for a moment contend that we always got it right. But that was not for lack of effort – and if I know nothing else it is that colleagues at all times did their best, and did so without fear or favour. (3/4)
