Question 981: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if the group (details supplied) is regarded as formally disbanded; if it has ceased all paramilitary activities; if its origin was a splinter group of the IRA; and if the group was listed in his Department as a paramilitary republican anti-partition group.

The Deputy will be aware that the group to which he refers emerged in the late 1960s pursuing a particular militant socialist agenda. The group is known to have been engaged in various criminal acts in purported pursuit of this agenda. From the information available to me, the group appears to have ceased to operate and has effectively been disbanded. The group was never the subject of a suppression order.
