Stewart Dickson MLA said: “Irrespective of the veracity of the claims made, or the ongoing personal goading between Peter Robinson and Jim Allister, we are quite clear that any business transaction should be made on the merits of the individual cases without any political or religious connotations being taken into account.
“The unusual nature of the interchange, while giving us a small insight into their previous relationship, is not really becoming or appropriate behaviour by elected representatives.”
