Proceeding contribution from Peter Robinson (Democratic Unionist Party) 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

: I am a little concerned and I wonder whether my hon. Friend shares my concern. The victims commissioner’s role, of its nature, deals with sensitive issues. It is a difficult job, assisting people who have been massively disadvantaged in life because of the act of evil men and women. The hon. Member for Foyle (Mark Durkan) may well have misgivings about the processes, but will my hon. Friend join me in urging him to put those behind him and give support to the victims commissioner in the crucial task that she has ahead?
