Proceeding contribution from Laurence Robertson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Terrorism (Northern Ireland) Bill 2005-06..
Terrorism (Northern Ireland) Bill
The Minister is attempting to explain the reason for the 2008 deadline. I shall quote from the last IMC report. It is right that the numbers of certain crimes have fallen, and we welcome that, but the report says:"““We have concluded that because of this paramilitary involvement, organised crime is the biggest long-term threat to the rule of law in Northern Ireland.””" The words ““long term”” perhaps explain why Opposition Members are concerned with the 2008 deadline.
