2026-03-25 Northern Ireland After Brexit (Northern Ireland Scrutiny Committee Report)
My Lords, it is a great pleasure, on behalf of the Official Opposition, to congratulate the Northern Ireland Scrutiny Committee, so ably chaired by the noble Lord, Lord Carlile of Berriew, on producing such a comprehensive and stimulating report. In addi
2025-12-10 Northern Ireland Troubles: Operation Kenova
My Lords, a 164-page report really should have been accompanied by an Oral Statement by the Government in Parliament. The report contains much uncomfortable reading, and our sympathies are with those who lost loved ones. We also recognise again the immen
2025-11-05 “Soldier F” Trial Verdict
My Lords, as part of the small team that helped my noble friend Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton draft his apology for Bloody Sunday, I stand by every word in that Statement. But in the case of soldier F, 15 years after the 12-year Saville inquiry, the ju
2025-10-20 Northern Ireland Troubles
My Lords, I am grateful to the Minister for repeating the Secretary of State’s Statement. At the outset, it is right that in approaching this issue, first and foremost in our thoughts are the victims and survivors of the Troubles. Over 3,500 lives were l
2025-09-03 Republic of Ireland: Defence Co-operation
My Lords, given the relative military and defensive weakness of Ireland on our western flank and the enhanced nature of the threats that we currently face, does the highly respected Minister agree that, in view of its contribution to our defence, Norther
2025-07-23 Casement Park: Spending Review
My Lords, having attended a GAA match at Celtic Park in the Bogside in Londonderry last April, I am fully aware of the importance of Gaelic games for large numbers in the community in Northern Ireland. I also understand the strong emotions generated by C
2025-07-15 Rutland Lieutenancy
My Lords, it is over 50 years since one of the most unloved reforms of local government in our history. Given the changes that are now taking place, has the time not now come to drop altogether the word “county” from local government administrative units
2025-07-09 House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Bill
My Lords, I rise to give strong support to the amendment moved so ably by my noble friend. Like other noble Lords, I do so on the basis of some experience. In November 2021, I was invited to join the Government as a Parliamentary Under-Secretary of St
2025-07-01 Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007 (Extension of Duration of Non-jury Trial Provisions) Order 2025
I am grateful to the Minister, and I appreciate that she cannot give a time commitment on the introduction of legislation, but can she confirm whether the Government intend to set out the next steps on legacy before the Summer Recess?
2025-07-01 Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007 (Extension of Duration of Non-jury Trial Provisions) Order 2025
Your officials are brilliant.
2025-07-01 Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007 (Extension of Duration of Non-jury Trial Provisions) Order 2025
I do not wish to detain the Committee for much longer. The noble Baroness rightly said that the criminal justice system is devolved in Northern Ireland, but these are cases that involve national security issues, which are, of course, a responsibility of
2025-07-01 Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007 (Extension of Duration of Non-jury Trial Provisions) Order 2025
My Lords, before I turn to the instrument before the Committee, as this is a Northern Ireland debate and it is 1 July, I want to take a moment to reflect that today marks the 109th anniversary of the first day of the Battle of the Somme. We remember the
2025-06-25 Independent Schools: Tax Changes
My Lords, yesterday the oldest independent prep school in my home city of Leeds, Moorlands, announced its closure after 127 years. Twelve days ago, the renowned Queen Margaret’s School in York, which has been educating girls for 125 years, said that it w
2025-06-11 Disorder in Ballymena
My Lords, I am very grateful to the noble Baroness. We too condemn unreservedly the appalling acts of racist thuggery in Ballymena, for which there can be not a single shred of justification. There is nothing remotely British about wrapping oneself in th

To ask His Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the disorder in Ballymena.
2025-05-21 Independent Commission for Reconciliation and Information Recovery
My Lords, dealing with the here and now, can the Minister confirm that the Government’s decision to reopen legacy inquests, alongside the new legacy commission, inevitably risks elderly veterans being dragged back into coroners’ courts over events that h
2025-05-01 Frozen Libyan Assets: Compensation for Victims of IRA Terrorism
My Lords, I begin by thanking the noble Lord, Lord Bew, for his kind comments about the public history. He will know that it was certainly my intention that the historians involved would have full access to the papers, and I assume, with the welcome news
2025-04-30 Irish Republican Alleged Incitement
My Lords, clearly the comments attributed to the band Kneecap go beyond anything that is remotely acceptable in a democratic society. While this is the worst example that has come to light, it is the latest in a line of incidents which, in 2022, saw them
2025-04-30 Headingley Incident
My Lords, as somebody who lives in Leeds—I was in Headingley on Friday evening— I add my own support and thanks to the police and emergency services for their very swift responses, commend the bravery of those members of the public who intervened and wis
2025-04-01 House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Bill
My Lords, I can say without fear of contradiction that our former colleague the Countess of Mar would have been incredibly voluble over the past 35 minutes or so. I rise to make my first contribution to proceedings on this Bill from the Opposition Fro
2025-03-26 Non-Domestic Rating (Multipliers and Private Schools) Bill)
My Lords, I will speak briefly in support of the amendment in the name of my noble friend Lady Barran. I have not taken part in any of the debates around independent schools in your Lordships’ House, and, for the record, I am entirely the product of the
2025-03-18 US Tariffs on EU Goods

2025-02-26 Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy and Reconciliation) Act 2023 (Remedial) Order 2024
My Lords, as a Minister I spent some 28 hours in your Lordships’ House debating the legislation that is the subject of this draft remedial order and the Motion in the name of the noble Baroness, Lady O’Loan. In addition, I held somewhere in the region of
