Proceeding contribution from Lady Hermon (Independent (affiliation)) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on Bloody Sunday Inquiry (Report).


Bloody Sunday Inquiry (Report)

I am most grateful to the Secretary of State for taking a second intervention so quickly. Why on earth was the advice of the most senior Royal Ulster Constabulary officer in the Londonderry area, Chief Superintendent Frank Lagan, ignored? Does the Secretary of State believe, or is there evidence to show, that if his wise counsel had been followed, the appalling events of that day could have been avoided?
