Declan Breathnach (Louth, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

As the Tánaiste and many others in this House well know, legacy issues from the Northern Ireland Troubles continue to impact on many families. I refer not only to the Dublin-Monaghan or Dundalk bombings, but also to many individual cases that have had an impact both North and South. It is an issue that persistently comes up in the Joint Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement and through the British-Irish Parliamentary Assembly. There is huge frustration among the affected families with the lack of response, particularly from the British, and the lack of progress in finding solutions to this issue. I want to ask the Tánaiste, genuinely, if any progress is being made and when we can see some success in giving these people hope of closure on their issues.
