I will be raising it at the British-Irish Parliamentary Assembly which is meeting in plenary session in County Kilkenny this weekend. The Government can do so much but the DUP and Sinn Féin were in a power sharing arrangement in Stormont and I think there are other ways it can be raised.

However, the PSNI has said that this was the most peaceful 12th July for some years. It was great to see that the Ardoyne flash-point passed off without any violence. Fr. Gary Donegan who has worked closely with the residents and the various stakeholders from the two communities has said that this was a major step forward. Yesterday, we were very pessimistic but today we should see it as a major step forward. We need to continue to dialogue, build bridges and break down the barriers. The PSNI said yesterday was the most peaceful 12th July in recent years and this is very welcome. People who burn effigies must be brought to account. I said yesterday that I am sure that the PSNI should have some video evidence of exactly what happened in this Love Ulster March in 2006. I would hope there will be knocks on doors in the next weeks and months.
