Proceeding contribution from Lord Morrow (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 17 July 2019. It occurred during Debate on bill on Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) Bill.


Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) Bill

My Lords, I will speak to Amendment 20A. I want to be brief, not because this subject is not deserving of a full debate, but because I have listened carefully to the previous debate and feel that the issues have been adequately covered. There must be a clear distinction—I know the noble Lord, Lord Hain, has pointed this out very clearly—between the victim-maker and the victim. Consideration of government proposals in the past has been coloured. I said that in the debate on Monday. There is dissatisfaction with people generally, but in particular with those who are campaigning for victims.
