Proceeding contribution from Lord Glentoran (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 March 2007. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Northern Ireland Act 2000 (Modification) Order 2007.


Northern Ireland Act 2000 (Modification) Order 2007

I thank the Minister for his lengthy reply to the last debate, and for the clear manner in which he has explained what we are doing now. I thank him too for ensuring that I got the very early warning that, and the explanation of why, we would be taking this statutory instrument today. I have little more to say, other than that I hope to God the Government do not actually need it. I thank the Minister for his undertaking, in the awful event that we need it after all, that the method of managing Northern Ireland affairs will be improved.
