Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 June 2005. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Firearms (Amendment) (Northern Ireland) Order 2005.


Firearms (Amendment) (Northern Ireland) Order 2005

Well, my Lords, I have looked at that, and probably should have given an answer before the matter was raised by the noble Lord. The key word there is ““consequential””. I do not think this can be read in a wider context. The Secretary of State can make consequential amendments to other orders following the order-making power that is given here. Obviously, if I am wrong, I shall receive advice to that effect.
