Is the Minister satisfied that the State is compliant with Article 2 of the European Convention of Human Rights? Taken together, Articles 1 and 2 place a particular responsibility on the State to investigate deaths in suspicious circumstances, whether at the hands of State agents or others. The Joint Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality and the Joint Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions will shortly hold joint hearings to obtain the views of a range of delegates, including Mr. Michael Finucane, the Irish Council for Civil Liberties, people researching the systems in place in England Wales and a coroner in this state.
