Business of the House

Has the Deputy Leader of the House had the opportunity to look at early-day motion 1120, signed by Members in all parts of the House, which pays tribute to the soccer legend George Best, who died last week? [That this House mourns the passing of East Belfast and Northern Ireland soccer legend George Best; salutes his unequalled football skills; acknowledges his place at the pinnacle of world class soccer; and tenders to his family its deepest condolences.] Will the Deputy Leader of the House join me in expressing condolences to the family, and will he urge the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland to make a statement to the House on the Government’s intentions regarding a national stadium, given that a large body of opinion in Northern Ireland feels that it should be named after the soccer legend?
