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
: I know that the right hon. Member for North Antrim (Rev. Ian Paisley) described the Bill as something of a smokescreen, but will the hon. Gentleman kindly agree with the only Ulster Unionist in the House on one little point—that the beauty of the Bill is that it simply devolves the decision about the devolution of policing and justice to the Assembly? That means that Unionist Members of the Assembly will have a complete veto over any future devolution of policing and justice that might otherwise have been foisted on the Assembly by this Government.
