Anglo-Irish Agreement

HC Deb 12 February 1987 vol 110 cc332-3W

18. Mr. Wallace

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will make a statement on the progress of the Anglo-Irish Agreement.

Mr. Tom King

Steady progress has continued to be made, not least on security co-operation. I remain of the view that the agreement offers us a good opportunity for the people of Northern Ireland. It is capable of helping all—and it will harm the legitimate interests of no one.
