Text

I thank the Member for giving way. Does the Member agree that one of the most chilling scenes that we saw was that of democratically elected Members from Sinn Féin and the SDLP linking arms with dangerous dissident republican terrorists who are pledged to the murder of police officers? Further, does the Member agree that we need to understand what sinister intelligence pertained to the Garvaghy Road in and around that week?
