Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Bill

I regret to say to the noble Lord, Lord Glentoran, that I find myself very much in agreement with the noble Lord, Lord Smith of Clifton, that the simple way of resolving this problem is to remove Clause 7. That is the sum total of the matter. The noble Lord, Lord Glentoran, has been very ingenious in the way he has proceeded, but I suggest that there is a simpler, more straightforward way, and I invite him to join other noble Lords in calling for the deletion of Clause 7 as the most elegant and simplest way to proceed.
