I can confirm that officials from the Department have raised the case with the British authorities. The British side has responded that the case will be included in the assessment of cases by the review unit which was set up by the Chief Constable recently specifically for that purpose. The review unit's initial assessment will determine if there is sufficient material to proceed to a full reinvestigation of the case.
