Proceeding contribution from Lord Dodds of Duncairn (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Presbyterian Mutual Society.
Presbyterian Mutual Society
I congratulate my hon. Friend on securing this important debate. He mentioned that the Presbyterian mutual society was allowed to go into administration as a result of action taken by Arlene Foster, the Minister of Enterprise, Trade and Investment in Northern Ireland. As the then Minister of Finance, I was part of a meeting between devolved Ministers and the PMS. Is not the swiftness with which action was taken in the Northern Ireland Assembly an illustration of the benefits of devolution to Northern Ireland, which allows local politicians to respond with flexibility, imagination and rapidity to crises that arise in the affairs of the people of Northern Ireland?
