British-Irish Agreement (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Second Stage.

 

Senator O'Rourke, other Members and I attended the British-Irish Inter-Parliamentary Body meeting on Sunday and Monday last weekend and a very good point was made on the Northern Ireland Civil Service by a Conservative MP, Lord Glentoran. He made the point that there is much concern in the Northern Ireland Civil Service regarding who is responsible for what issues since the suspension of the Executive and the Assembly. It is very important that bodies about which we are talking in this Bill are up and running and that they continue to do so. There should be no doubt about what they have to do.
