Devolution and the Union

Proceeding contribution from Naomi Long (Alliance) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 November 2014. It occurred during Backbench debate on Devolution and the Union.

I remind the hon. Lady that Northern Ireland remains part of the United Kingdom, in case we are in any doubt. Does she agree that a similar approach should be taken when reserved and excepted matters for Northern Ireland that affect only Northern Ireland are voted on in this place? On those occasions, where Northern Ireland Members have agreed on a certain course of action we are often overruled by English MPs.
