"content": "As regards the Transition to Devolved Governments Act, I want to agree with most of my colleagues in their concern of the proposal to get rid of the Transition Authority. This is established by an Act of Parliament and it is also within the Constitution. Therefore, just to replace it with an inter-governmental committee will be a disaster because one of the key functions of the Transition Authority is to oversee the distribution of assets. This is the most crucial aspect of the Transition Authority, which has never been handled. If we hand over this to an inter-governmental committee, you can be sure that this is going to be a disaster. So, I do not support that. I would like the Transition Authority to continue doing its work and must be given the mandate to execute its work, particularly; it should be given its independent Budget."
