Committee on Procedures: role and membership

The Committee on Procedures keeps the Assembly’s Standing Orders — the rulebook governing how it conducts its own business — under review, and recommends changes when the existing procedures no longer work well in practice.

Its work is procedural rather than departmental: it does not scrutinise ministers or legislation, but the rules that shape how every other committee and the Assembly chamber itself operate.

Who sits on it

The committee is chaired by Kellie Armstrong (Alliance Party), with Órlaithí Flynn (Sinn Féin) as deputy chair. See the full nine-member roster on the committee’s page.

Data sources

Membership and chair data are drawn from the NI Assembly’s official committee records, kept up to date by the weekly Assembly sync.
