Northern Ireland: Murder Prosecutions

Lord Laird
asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the Written Answer by Lord Rooker on 22 April (WA 285–6) concerning the murders of Ulster Defence Regiment and Royal Irish Regiment members, whether all the murder inquiries are still in progress. [HL3233]

Lord Rooker
The Historical Enquiries Team within the police service is systematically re-examining all deaths, including those of UDR and RIR members, attributable to the security situation in Northern Ireland. Work has been completed in 15 of the 203 cases referred to in my Answer of 22 April (Official Report, cols. WA 285-6).
