Proceeding contribution from Mark Durkan (Social Democratic & Labour 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 remind the hon. Gentleman that it was his party that agreed with Sinn Fein and the two Governments in the comprehensive agreement not only to go into government with Sinn Fein but potentially to be in government alone with Sinn Fein, because the exclusion principle would have meant that no other party would have been included. It would essentially have been a voluntary coalition between Sinn Fein and the DUP.
