Northern Ireland: Statements.

 

That is an essential point on which we must make progress. We entered the twilight zone politically ten years ago when our discussions with republicans first started. That zone must end now. The people concerned must be informed of their obligations. They must be reminded that the transition into democratic politics is the only impediment which will stop progress on all the outstanding matters. I urge Members of the House and all parties to remind them of their obligations under the Agreement. It is the only one which provides for the self-determination of our people, North and South, since it was agreed in 1998.
