Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement
United Kingdom Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy and Reconciliation) Act 2023: Discussion
Professor Bill Rolston:
The Labour Party is on record as saying it will reverse the Bill. We are in a win-win situation as regards asking for an interstate case. If the Labour Party stays true to its proposal and reverses the Bill then, as I said, a case in Europe would add pressure or support to that idea of doing away with the Bill.
