Chris Bryant

Labour — Rhondda and Ogmore

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 October 2026

Debate

Northern Ireland Troubles Bill

Contribution

I want to be absolutely clear that I completely agree with my hon. Friend about the principle of candour. Just as we argued for it in the Hillsborough law—which is still making its way through the House of Lords; it is still in Committee stage down there—so I want us to be as open and transparent as possible. I undertake to work with him and others in this House to ensure that principle is adhered to when we mesh together the two Bills—this Bill and the Hillsborough law—in the House of Lords.
