HC Deb 19 July 2000 vol 354 cc195-6W
26. Mr. Ivan Lewis

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what progress is being made on implementation of the Good Friday Agreement. [129885]

Mr. Mandelson

The Government are committed to the full implementation of the Belfast Agreement. The provisions for policing, criminal justice, equality and rights, prisoners and security are progressing with all due speed. The prospects for decommissioning are good. I am confident we will fulfil our commitment to implement the Agreement in full by June 2001.
