Proceeding contribution from Lord Laird (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 January 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Northern Ireland.
Northern Ireland
My Lords, is the Minister aware that Unionists are concerned about going into an executive at Stormont with Sinn Fein? They fear that after a few months they might discover that they have gone into government with MI5. The noble Lord indicated in his Statement that republicans should be committed to exclusively lawful means. Does he mean that they must put and end to laundering criminally gained money and give up the property and businesses that the IRA owns in Dublin, Manchester, Blackpool, Liverpool and the Channel Islands, to mention but a few areas?
