"I congratulate the rapporteur on the work in bringing forward these reports. My constituency of Northern Ireland has seen real progress, especially since the creation of stable devolution in 2007. However we are still on that journey and many in this chamber will have seen the scenes of violence from Belfast in recent days. These riots have been immediately sparked by the actions of Sinn Fein, the SDLP and the Alliance Party in supporting a decision to remove the Union flag from Belfast City Hall and to fly it only on certain days. However the problems in these areas are very significant. They are the result of years of violence, high levels of unemployment and low educational attainment. The youth unemployment rate in Northern Ireland is around 20 %, and even higher in areas of inner city violence. Young people need to find their place in creating a stable society in Northern Ireland. Therefore, I encourage this house to support a further tranche of peace funding, focusing on youth unemployment and capacity building in this area."@en1
