Proceeding contribution from Lord Campbell of Pittenweem (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Mull of Kintyre Review.
Mull of Kintyre Review
If Parliament exists for the redress of grievance, today is a most eloquent illustration of that principle. My right hon. Friend deserves great credit for taking the decision that he has announced, and for the nature of the apology he has offered to the families, with whom I have been in contact over many years in relation to this campaign. I have always been impressed by their steadfast determination and dignity. Does my right hon. Friend understand that satisfaction at the outcome today is tempered by dismay that the original decision turned on legal advice that was palpably and self-evidently wrong?
