Proceeding contribution from Lord Smith of Clifton (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 16 July 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Northern Ireland (Sentences) Act 1998 (Specified Organisations) Order 2008.


Northern Ireland (Sentences) Act 1998 (Specified Organisations) Order 2008

I congratulate the noble Lord on his pronunciation of the new republican bodies being listed, but some confusion arises because sometimes he refers to the UDF. I know that these initials are very confusing, but that is why my noble friend was somewhat confused. Perhaps Hansard would note that the Minister is referring to the UDA at this stage.
