HC Deb 19 July 2000 vol 354 c195W
18. Mr. Clifton-Brown

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will make a statement on the early release of terrorist prisoners. [129877]

Mr. Ingram

The early release of prisoners is dependent on the continuation of the current ceasefires. The Secretary of State is in constant touch with his security advisers and keeps the security situation continually under review.
