Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 5 June 2007. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on North South Cooperation (Implementation Bodies) (Amendment) (Northern Ireland) Order 2007.


North/South Co-operation (Implementation Bodies) (Amendment) (Northern Ireland) Order 2007

My Lords, I do not have an answer to that. It was an integral part of the Belfast agreement, but I am not sure whether there was consultation with the political parties. This was last year, so I cannot speak from personal experience about that, but if there is an answer to give the noble Lord about that I should be able to give it to him before the close of the debate. I am not sure whether it would have been appropriate to consult, if it was a government-to-government operation, but that I cannot say.
