Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 7 July 2005. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Northern Ireland Act 2000 (Modification) (No 2) Order 2005.


Northern Ireland Act 2000 (Modification) (No 2) Order 2005

I shall certainly take that on board. Another issue is to see whether, on some occasions, Northern Ireland can be dealt with in secondary legislation. It is not always possible, so I do not hold that out as a possibility, but certainly it is an issue that we are considering, as and when we can, at the beginning of a new parliamentary session. Frankly, we hope we will not be doing this for too long. On Question, Motion agreed to.
