Moderator Welcomes Orange Decision to Waive Rights

Presbyterian Moderator Dr Sam Hutchinson has welcomed the decision of the Orange Order not to exercise its right to walk in certain areas.

'I warmly welcome this decision of the Orange Order to waive their right to parade in certain areas. This is the wise and proper option and will immediately diffuse the tense situation that has developed over the last days. While I would see this gesture as a temporary respite, I do believe it is a responsible and positive step towards beginning a new dimension of bridge building.'
