I thank the Minister of State for his comprehensive response. The events last week in regard to Ballymurphy give us all hope. I am sure the people of Monaghan and Dublin who were following the developments last week in regard to Ballymurphy, which occurred in 1971, are, perhaps, hopeful that their day too might be coming. I urge the Minister of State and the Government to do all they can, as I know they will, to ensure these families can finally get closure. Forty-seven years have passed and a lot of these people are not getting any younger and they would like closure while they are still here to witness it.
