It seems the inference is that these people were murdered by the IRA. It has been said by Sinn Féin that, through its assistance, the remains of a significant number of people were recovered, of the 16 who were murdered. Does Sinn Féin have any view as to what should happen now? Is there more Sinn Féin can do, in terms of the IRA, to get this information? I accept it was a long time ago but there are people alive who must know about it. You might want to move on in terms of time but families cannot move on until the remains of the deceased are recovered. If it is a reasonable question, what is the answer to it? What more can we all do, but particularly Sinn Féin in terms of the IRA and the people who murdered these people? I do not know if anybody in Sinn Féin would like to answer that. There is nobody answering that, is there?
