Professor Bill Rolston:

In general, we are not like the Deputy. We are not elected politicians. While I may have opinions that I could let fly of what I think of the Tory Government in the UK at the moment, I will not do that. If the Deputy can contribute in any way from either side of the Border to bringing more truth to bear in respect of what happened, organisations such RFJ would be completely behind him. Not to negate that, two other points need to be added. First, there is already an awful lot of information and, second, we know an awful lot of information is there already but we have not yet seen it. What was buried in Kew was in my initial report.

Remember, there is also information that is potentially available in the southern system - I refer to Dublin and Monaghan, for example - which has not come to light. If it comes to light through such an investigation or any other way that can be done, that would be welcome. This is because the truth is not the same as justice, but it is part-way there.
