Before Leaders' Questions this week, we will commemorate the anniversary of the events in Derry on 30 January 1972 known as Bloody Sunday. Today I propose we hold a minute's silence in remembrance of the 14 people who lost their lives as a result of Bloody Sunday, a major tragedy in the history of our island.

Members rose.
