I agree with what the Deputy said. An expert team is searching for the disappeared victims of the Troubles. The team has begun a sixth dig for the remains of a teenager, Columba McVeigh, who was murdered by the Provisional IRA in November 1975. He was from Donaghmore, Country Tyrone and was aged 19 when he was abducted, shot and secretly buried. The investigators from the Independent Commission for the Location of Victims' Remains have returned to Bragan Bog near Emyvale, County Monaghan and will search there.

They are not saying they have any additional information; we should not presume that. However, they are asking anybody who knows anything that could help them recover Columba's remains to contact the team. A very revealing book, Say Nothingby Patrick Radden Keefe should be required reading for everyone in this House in terms of what happened to families and the lack of any accountability.
