Hilary Benn

Labour — Leeds South

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 July 2024

Debate

First Minister and Deputy First Minister

Contribution

It is great to see the House so full for Northern Ireland questions, and I congratulate all colleagues recently elected in Northern Ireland. I met the First Minister and Deputy First Minister twice in my first four days, during which we discussed a wide range of issues, including the Government’s commitment to repeal and replace the legacy Act. I plan to update the House shortly on how we will begin that process.
