Northern Ireland: Devolution

Answer

My Lords, there is much work still to be done, but there are no issues before us which should prevent the successful restoration of devolved government on Monday 26 March. The fact that so much progress has already been made is testament to the commitment of the Northern Ireland political parties to achieving a final political settlement.
