Proceeding contribution from Ian Jnr Paisley (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 February 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Coastguard Service.
Coastguard Service
What an opportune time to get an intervention. In 1989, I was involved in an attempt to rescue two drowning children off the coast of Northern Ireland. They had been holidaying there, but, unfortunately, one of them died. However, if it had not been for the co-ordination that the hon. Lady has mentioned, there would have been a double tragedy. It is essential that people recognise and get to grips with the fact that Northern Ireland will be naked to the ravages of the sea if we do not properly protect our coastguard.
