Neither I nor my officials have had any discussions about specific parade notifications with any member of the Parades Commission since the period referred to in the question.<\/p>
Consideration of parades notifications is an operational matter for the Parades Commission, acting independently of the Government, in exercise of their powers under the Public Processions (NI) Act 1998. I play no role in that process.<\/p>
