Fianna Fáil will support this important legislation. The historical investigations unit has been due to be established since 2014. We must get on with it. The Minister mentioned the political vacuum. We should not allow our dealings with the North and Britain to fall into that vacuum also.
The PSNI has listed approximately 1,188 killings as legacy investigations. It is important that they be investigated, families get answers and communities be given the opportunity to heal.
