Proceeding contribution from Lord Dodds of Duncairn (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 November 2011. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Big Society Agenda.


Big Society Agenda

May I put on record my congratulations to the hon. Gentleman on his appointment as shadow Secretary of State for Northern Ireland? He mentioned the importance of the Grand Committee. This is the second meeting of the Committee in this parliamentary Session. In the last parliamentary Session, the Grand Committee met in Belfast, and may I suggest to him that that would be well worth repeating, because at least then there would be coverage of the debates, the questions and so on, given the limited opportunities that we have now with devolution? That is something that is well worth pursuing by this Government.
