Firearms: Northern Ireland
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she has had discussions with the Police Service of Northern Ireland on the timing of the implementation of firearms licenses.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
Northern Ireland has its own firearms legislation which is separate to the legislation in Great Britain. This is the responsibility of the Northern Ireland Government and this legislation governs how the Police Service of Northern Ireland undertakes its firearms licensing functions.
