The Government has been clear that it will bring forward legislation to address the legacy of the Troubles that focuses on reconciliation, delivers for victims, and ends the cycle of investigations that has failed victims and veterans alike.

Notwithstanding the challenging circumstances presented by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, which has affected progress, we are committed to working with all parts of the community in Northern Ireland to move forward on this issue as quickly as possible.
