Proceeding contribution from Baroness Blood (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 8 February 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Northern Ireland.

Northern Ireland

My Lords, I, too, thank the leader for bringing us this Statement, and place on record the thanks of the people of Northern Ireland to the two Prime Ministers who gave up their time freely to deal with our issues. It is a good day for Northern Ireland that we have agreement, even in a document. So from that point of view, Friday was good. However, confusion reigns in Northern Ireland. Listening to the media from Friday to today, most people out there do not understand what is going on. I have heard a lot about community confidence. Will the noble Baroness say how the general public will know what is going to happen in the future?
