Proceeding contribution from Lady Hermon (Ulster Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Northern Ireland (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill.


Northern Ireland (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill

The hon. Gentleman referred to the Paris principles. Those principles set out the characteristics and powers of a national human rights commission. Does he accept that the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission is a regional human rights commission, not a national one across the United Kingdom, and so should have lesser powers and different characteristics from those outlined in the Paris principles?
