I thank the Minister of State very much for his comprehensive response to my Commencement matter. They say that justice delayed is justice denied. That is very much the case in respect of Monaghan and Dublin. Fifty years on, a shadow continues to hang over the town of Monaghan. That shadow will remain until those survivors, whose lives' journey has moved a good bit on, get closure for their families, which they would like while they are still around. I sincerely hope they get that closure 50 years on. We hope the publication of these reports will lead to a pathway through which they finally get what they have sought for more than half a century: truth and justice for the loved ones they so tragically lost.
