Baroness Goudie:

I agree with my colleagues but we all know that investment in Northern Ireland, not just from the UK but from the whole of Europe, America, Canada and other countries, is vital because we cannot let young people not be eligible to get work, apprenticeships, proper jobs and proper training. If we get proper investment, the education system and the health service can be improved. In the long term, if we do not help to make this happen, Northern Ireland will not settle to be managing its own economy in the next 20 years of so. It is now that we must ensure we are giving investment to these issues and that is why outside investment is vital.
