Older People's Parliament
The Older People’s Parliament is back for 2024.
The Northern Ireland Assembly represents and makes laws for everyone who lives here. It is essential that there are ways for all sections of our community to have their say, and that we provide opportunities for them to affect change. One of the ways we do this is through Outreach Parliaments which provide a platform for section 75 groups to engage directly with decision-makers and raise issues of concern.
The Older People’s Parliament will take place on 12 October 2024 in the Assembly Chamber in Parliament Buildings. It will be an opportunity for older people to have their say on issues and decisions that affect their lives.
To capture people’s views, we created a short online survey which ran in August/September 2024.
We are currently analysing the results of the survey and, when complete, a report will be published which will include the issues and recommendations discussed for distribution to MLAs and Ministers.
