Armed Forces Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Empey (Ulster Unionist Party) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 11 February 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Armed Forces Bill.

My Lords, I am in favour of annual reporting and we pushed that hard last time. I mentioned that the Northern Ireland Executive have failed to make a report. Therefore, that opportunity for Parliament to scrutinise what is happening with a reserved and accepted function, which will never be devolved, is no longer available. I raised this at the last occasion and would be most grateful if the Minister will ask his department to look at it. I fear that it is only a matter of time before something goes wrong.
