answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>This Government has made clear on many occasions that we will never be neutral in expressing our support for the Union. Our steadfast belief is that Northern Ireland’s future is best served within a stronger United Kingdom. As part of the Union, Northern Ireland benefits from being part of the world’s fifth largest economy that allows for the pooling of risks and the sharing of resources to fund public spending, such as on defence, education and our National Health Service.</p> answering member constituency Skipton and Ripon answering member printed Julian Smith question first answered 09/09/2019 11:51:05 answering member 4118 label Biography information for Julian Smith

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>This Government remains fully committed to finding a solution for dealing with the legacy of the Troubles which works for everyone - this means a way forward which meets the needs of victims and survivors, ensures that members of the Armed Forces and police are treated fairly and complies with the UK Government’s domestic and international legal obligations. Taking into account the responses received to the recent consultation, I will continue to work closely with the Northern Ireland parties, and ministerial colleagues - particularly in the Ministry of Defence and Office for Veterans’ Affairs, parliamentarians, the Irish Government and key stakeholders to find a way forward which is effective, legally robust and commands consensus.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Skipton and Ripon answering member printed Julian Smith question first answered 09/09/2019 13:17:13 answering member 4118 label Biography information for Julian Smith
