Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Hoon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 March 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

If the implication of what the hon. Lady is saying is that we should not encourage the integration of schooling in Northern Ireland, I would be very disappointed. I am sure that the hon. Lady did not mean to give that impression. It is obviously very important that we promote integrated schooling that allows young people in Northern Ireland to grow and develop with knowledge of, and understanding of, all the communities represented in that part of the world. However, I will certainly ensure that my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland writes to her on this issue.
