Justice (Northern Ireland) Bill [Lords] — 10 Mar 2004 at 18:44

I beg to move, That the Bill be now read a Second time.

The Bill represents another step forward on Northern Ireland's path to peace, stability and justice. At the heart of the agreement was a commitment to build a police service and a criminal justice system that would enjoy the support of all sections of Northern Ireland society. It is our view that the Bill is proof that the Government are still completely committed to achieving that end-and to completing the implementation of the Good Friday agreement.

I beg to move,

That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Justice (Northern Ireland) Bill because the Bill will weaken rather than strengthen the criminal justice system in Northern Ireland; will undermine the independence of the judiciary in Northern Ireland; will lead to the greater politicisation of the criminal justice system in Northern Ireland; and will weaken the principle of appointment to the judiciary solely on merit.

Question put, That the amendment be made:-

The House divided: Ayes 145, Noes 366.
