ST. PATRICK'S DAY

EDM number 1812 in 2005-06, proposed by Eddie McGrady on 14/03/2006.

That this House calls on the Government to provide for St. Patrick's Day, 17th March, to become an annual public holiday in Northern Ireland in recognition of the feast day of Ireland's Patron Saint and the celebrations that are organised by local government authorities and community groups across the communities, and as a measure to assist reconciliation, as Saint Patrick is espoused by all traditions.

This motion has been signed by a total of 37 MPs.
