The British Government's legacy Act is a cynical and callous attempt to block victims and families from ever getting justice through the courts and to hide the role of British state forces and their agencies in the conflict. Today, that Act takes effect, to their very great shame. I have raised this issue many times previously. I accept that the Government has lodged an interstate case against the British Government, which is a necessary and welcome action. Has the Government received any timeline as to when that case might be heard?
