Question to the Northern Ireland Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what professional fee payments have been made to the law firm A & L Goodbody by (1) the Northern Ireland Office, and (2) the Crown Solicitor's Office, in each of the last ten years for which figures are available.
In the last 10 years the Northern Ireland Office has not made any fee payments to A & L Goodbody.
The Crown Solicitor’s Office works independently from Government and I suggest that the Noble Lord write to the Crown Solicitor directly requesting this information.
