Question to the Northern Ireland Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what discussions they had with the government of Ireland regarding whether investigations should be undertaken into alleged crimes perpetrated by the Provisional Irish Republican Army before April 1998 at the meeting of the British-Irish Intergovernmental Conference on 2 December 2021; what decision the government of Ireland had made on this matter; and what assessment they have made of that decision.
The Secretary of State for Northern Ireland has raised with the Government of Ireland the issue of investigations into Troubles-related offences that were committed in Ireland and will continue to do so.
