§ Lord Lairdasked Her Majesty's Government:
Further to the Written Answer by the Lord Privy Seal on 9 January (WA 231) concerning the attitude by the Government of the Republic of Ireland to human rights, what is meant by "to give further effect to the convention of Irish Law". [HL1214]
§ The Lord Privy Seal (Lord Williams of Mostyn)"To give further effect to the convention of Irish law" means "to give legislative effect to the convention of Irish law".
I would recommend that if the noble Lord has any further Questions on this subject they should be addressed directly to the Department of Foreign Affairs, Iveagh House, St Stephens Green, Dublin 2.
