Recall of MPs Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lady Hermon (Independent (affiliation)) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 November 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills on Recall of MPs Bill.

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for allowing me to intervene. May I put a proposition to him which is a possibility? On 17 July Lady Justice Hallett’s report was published and a statement was made by the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland. In that report, it was identified that 14 terrorists of the republican movement had been granted the royal prerogative of mercy. They are unnamed, but it is believed they might include senior politicians representing Sinn Fein. If the names of those 14 recipients of the RPM whom

we know to be republican terrorists were to be revealed and included a Member of this House, would the hon. Gentleman think differently?
