Proceeding contribution from Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 12 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Northern Ireland Assembly Members Bill [HL].
Northern Ireland Assembly Members Bill [HL]
There are two things. As I mentioned earlier, I have been listening to noble Lords and will reflect further and come back on Report, but I am not sure what is going to happen. However, I wish to defend my Secretary of State against the allegation that he has not shown courage. I know that Northern Ireland has had difficult days for many months and years, but in the difficult months in which I have been involved, my Secretary of State has shown courage. I wish to place that on record.
