I propose to take Questions Nos. 128 and 129 together.

The Deputy will be aware that this case relates to an offence that was committed over 40 years ago. The events in question culminated in a pardon for a particular individual in 1992. I am not aware of any matter of public interest which would necessitate reopening these matters.

Furthermore the specific information sought by the Deputy is not readily available and could only be obtained by the disproportionate expenditure of time and resources relative to the information sought.
