Proceeding contribution from Mark Durkan (Social Democratic & Labour Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Northern Ireland (St Andrews Agreement) Bill.


Northern Ireland (St Andrews Agreement) Bill

I assure the Minister that we have no problem with placing the ministerial code on a statutory footing. We do not believe that all the actions of Ministers should end up being justiciable because of the way in which the provision is made in the Bill. There are better ways to provide for such things.
