Proceeding contribution from Julian Lewis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 31 October 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Terrorism (Northern Ireland) Bill.


Terrorism (Northern Ireland) Bill

The Secretary of State will recall that I asked him whether Lord Carlile’s letter indicated where he thought threats might still come from. As if by magic, copies of that letter have now appeared, and I see that it did in fact say:"““On the other side is the Commission’s conclusion that paramilitaries, especially Loyalists and dissident Republicans, continue to exert a malign influence over communities.””" That was the justification for his statement, and I thought it just as well to get it on the record.
