Proceeding contribution from Lembit Opik (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 February 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Bill.
Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Bill
I understand that. The Minister may want to come back to me, but I am asking him to explain why the phrase ““junior Minister”” is used in some legislation and ““deputy Minister”” used in this legislation. There may be some logical reason for it but, for the sake of definition and to avoid wrangles within the Assembly, it is probably helpful to have on the record the reason why the two different phrases are used. I recognise that it may take the Minister 10 or 15 minutes to consider that.
