The Deputy will be aware that this case relates to an offence that was committed over 45 years ago. The events in question culminated in the overturning of the convictions of two persons in 1980 and a pardon for one individual in 1992.

The Irish Council for Civil Liberties has submitted a petition to my office which seeks to establish an inquiry into this case. This petition is receiving attention and a response will issue in due course, once the matter has been fully considered.
