The allegations referred to by the Deputy, concerning one of the individuals who carried out the Greysteel murders, are a serious matter. The Government has raised this issue with the British Government through the British-Irish Intergovernmental Secretariat in Belfast, and my officials will continue to monitor developments closely.
