We are committing £5m to support the recommendations of the memorialisation strategy that will be commissioned through the Government’s Legacy Bill. This will help identify inclusive new structures and initiatives to remember those who were lost during the Troubles.

Northern Ireland is governed best when governed locally. ✅
While I am hopeful that locally elected ministers will once again resume their responsibilities, the Interim Arrangements Act prevents a governance gap in the Executive’s absence.

These opportunities would be best delivered by a functioning NI Executive. Great to discuss these points with business reps at today’s @CER_EU breakfast

I was very sorry to learn of the passing of former NI Secretary, Lord Brooke. As one of my predecessors, Peter played a pivotal role in laying the foundations of the peace process. We are indebted to him for his public service working for the betterment of everyone in NI.
