Proceeding contribution from Lord Mayhew of Twysden (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 9 May 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Northern Ireland.


Northern Ireland

My Lords, the noble Baroness’s comments were a most salutary warning. Nevertheless, we must all trust that yesterday’s most heartening event in Stormont will lead to the great success that all the participants and all the people of Northern Ireland deserve. For the present, will the noble Lord accept that it has been the steadfast work, during the whole of the past 10 years, to discover and to open up a way to devolution, and the perseverance, not to say the endurance, of the Prime Minister, that deserve warm congratulations?
