DELIVERING TRUTH TO THE FAMILIES OF VICTIMS IN NORTHERN IRELAND

With the inquiry into the Ballymurphy massacre finding that the ten people killed were “entirely innocent”, I asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland why it has taken 50 years for the truth to be uncovered.

It is truly shameful that families of the victims have had to wait so long for answers, and the truth has only been revealed due to their tireless efforts. I therefore asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what specific action the UK Government will take to reassure the people of Northern Ireland that it is committed to uncovering the truth about all unsolved killings in Northern Ireland, as set out in the Stormont Agreement.
