That this House calls on the Government to provide for St Patrick's Day, 17th March, to become an annual public holiday in Northern Ireland, in recognition of the feast day of Ireland's Patron Saint and the celebrations that are organised by local government authorities and community groups across the communities, and as a measure to assist reconciliation, as St Patrick is espoused by all Christian traditions.

That this House notes the report from the Nuclear Installations Inspectorate released last week which clearly demonstrated that there had been a persistent falsification of safety records since 1996 at the mixed oxide plant at Sellafield; notes that there was a culture of mismanagement at the base; and, in view of the ongoing catalogue of uncontrolled discharges of radioactive waste into the Irish Sea and local environment and the contamination of soil samples in the vicinity of the plant in the last few years, calls upon the Government to immediately make a decision to decommission the total nuclear facility at Sellafield as a matter or urgency.
