HC Deb 21 June 1990 vol 174 c691W
31. Mr. Nellist

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will obtain a copy of the transcript of the ITV programme "Shoot to Kill" for his departmental library; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Cope

I watched the programme and was concerned because I did not think that it showed an appropriate degree of balance and because the drama-documentary technique used was an unsatisfactorary approach to the serious issues at stake. On the events in question, there is nothing I can add to the statement made by the Attorney-General in the House on 25 January 1988 at column 21.
