Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

Ballymurphy Families: Discussion

Dr. Stephen Farry:

I want to reinforce that wherever we end up in this regard, at the very least the four principles of the Stormont House Agreement - human rights, the rule of law, justice and reconciliation - are absolutely fundamental. It is important that we always bear in mind that the victims are at the heart of this process. It is their needs that we are trying to address alongside facilitating the wider reconciliation and healing of our society.
