inquiry into the dublin amman bombings. it still took 7 years for the irish government 6 years after the hour a 1904 cease fire to agree to a strict in form of inquiry under justice henry byron the inquiry found in his own careful words and despite london refusing to cooperate with the inquiry that the case for collusion was neither fanciful nor absurd. crucially however for the families bereaved by other glennon martyrs north of the border daryn published a full appendix listing the ballistic links between other key attacks. after publication of the barn report it became obvious that there was still no response from the state. very serious allegations of criminality where knock on the investigated that there was going to be no response and so we decided that we should respond we should bring people in and their national figures so we approached a number of people u.n.

investigators who were to el salvador people who'd worked on the south african truth commission and others academics lawyers people's experience and we invited them to ireland and i asked them to look at the evidence to me was whistleblowers to meet with families to meet with p.s. and i was seated on many others and a troll their own conclusions to draw up their own report the international panel report which is what they did and it was a very valuable experience to have people from outside the jurisdiction come here look at the evidence and come to their own conclusions. 10 years ago from 2004 to 2006 i had the privilege of chairing an independent international inquiry into potential collusion by british security forces in paramilitary killings of catholics in northern ireland. they certainly were not a few. there are a significant number. of agents from within the e.u.

see the u.d.r. who were involved directly in these killings who are in collusion with them. and their activities their illegal activities according to the evidence we received. to their immediate superiors putting a number of chief inspectors inspectors where we were not able to ascertain if. the chain of command this way that we do know the senior authorities in london. of information that should have caused them to further investigations of this collusion in northern ireland we found no no indication that they took that obligation seriously. the next big step change came when they historically inquiries team was set up to investigate all the unsolved of the conflict which quickly. all. the conflicts and within that

organization the there was a special team set out to investigate claims of collusion the state was allegedly involved in it was headed by a particularly intelligent determined detective. a full review number of motos. involved. there was already have been some degrees of collusion. and. security forces that were directly involved but as the review concern years we found out more i was surprised about the extent. to which they was involved in some of those cases.

may was the the fatal bombing of the step in in august launching 76 people were killed where there was overseen by. police officers. that really flabbergasted me by the lack of response from the only you see. it was quite evident from the outside looking at certain interviews material and documents that elements of the all you see knew that some of their offices were planning and eventually carried out the final touch of the stuff in so many others which are. suspecting customers. what it's incomprehensible to me. that they all use a. level were aware that a bombing was being carried out and in fact the bombing of the. knowing who was

responsible and knowing who they were they still did nothing about. none of those officers were arrested until 1978 and even then my words arrested specifically for the step in they were arrested for other matters. from the 976 until december 19th. the all you see did nothing. for us to step in bombing was the smoking gun because although we believe that it was very similar to a lot of other attacks in the clans there is the difference with the step in with the historical enquiries team under steve morris managed to find all the paperwork . which showed that that. what the authorities had known about the plan leading up to the step in the carrying out of the bombing itself and the fact. although they

knew every single person who'd been involved in the planning the coordination the determining of the target the making of the bomb the storing up the bomb everything then you everybody and everything about this ball despite that and spite the fact that 2 people were killed and a huge number of other people were very seriously engines not one single person was of a child still convicted without bombing despite the i.e.c. knowing everything about it. the more we realize that all those years were. of course. devastated not miss him came through we better. relief. that i had gone on a cord. because i knew the army was there check the whole thing out of me in check dish kono pharma and its orders. and their army and the police rather than

copy argentina bonior. and known as the question. and question on the haiti tito british one thing that there was this survey of around the mid afternoon and you had bowman there for years this did committed the murder that is not just order. and wait your partner changed to bed. the only part of the inquest put forward and no more county. oh no what they don't. it was clear deals from c. in the individual reports that were coming from the storage what queries team the what we were looking at here it was cordon it attacks the sort of the same people use the same weapons same farm poses. same height same modus operandi or working

together. to truly understand what was happening and who needed to be looked at as a whole the daily thing else would be the case each individual attack to individual is that which didn't tell the bigger story the story that was understood a play said quarters that was understood as army headquarters at the time that these were coordinated actions and indeed that some members of the security forces were taking part in these attacks and so we said to the cittie that the only way to properly understand this was to produce an overarching report they agreed they began to work on it but it was never completed it was never delivered. when we think the prospect of an overarching. thematic report. and a senior level within the peers and i because. the conclusions would have been just too strong it would have essentially made the case and in fact it would have

amounted to a steep recognition confirmation of collusion existed within the security forces in this particular sector in the conflict and i suppose politically for many many other reasons not just comfortable for many people for the british government. pulling out of the overarching report on that really is just unacceptable for the families. one of the fundamental elements of my report would have been for these questions be almost how is it a group of place officers. know that they can go back to a farm where there is a bomb in a car having been on the surveillance and yet they know they can go back the following day. and the bomb goes off will drive them the confidence that they were not going to be apprehend. there and then. or some lighter stites

for me that is the biggest question that needs to be answered. desperate to get to the truth before some of the elderly bereaved relatives die steve morris is on answered questions were put before the courts and belfast. their lawyers challenge the haiti's failure to write the thematic report that they were promised. amongst the legal exhibits provided to the high court was a copy of un cadwallader as lethal allies the 1st time any such group was accepted as a legal exhibit in the northern courts. in july 27 tane the courts delivered a stunning victory for the families ordering the chief constable to come up within weeks with inseparable independent fully resourced report to fulfil its e.t.s. prompts. humiliated the chief constable of pain despite objections from the early

families 11 of whom it passed away since the court case began. on the screen alone hargrove for the families today it honest was just being very disappointing that the overarching report that would have pulled everton together and made all the connections wasn't being completed to there. how important is today for the. horton it's frustrating yesterday it was disappointing you have your ups and downs equally in this story but i did however frustration and sadness is the me there are people all over know that i don't have lost found a race who are getting out this morning wondering if this is. going to be

a good day and they finally get some justice. so these days you never know what the courts are going to decide but there's no doubt about it in the 3 months since groundbreaking picture in the courts on the 28th of july 27th jean although the p.s. and i and the state were ordered by the judge to negotiate with us and come forward with a green route to our inquiry enter a halt we've just discovered that they have done nothing. absolutely nothing so if you are an individual or a citizen and you are ordered to do something by of course you have to do it because somehow if your police force and you are all good by courts to something you can get away with doing nothing at least 3 months and if they decide to appeal today which is possible it could delay everything right here some of our family

members are also ill they might be hearing in just see the report that they wish it to conform to the sun on come into existence.

you know we talk. of the. money because it's the primary reason people use it money keynesian economics or. because the people who are organizing it think. there's. a bank. more money well what's the ultimate scarce commodity what is the ultimate. what is the ultimate scarce commodity.

in their face for justice for 2 reasons the 1st in the courthouse and in the rare move ordered that they should not take action on complete the report that was promised to all of these families the 2nd issue is that the move the court has asked for the police to provide. compelling why they have not given any notes or records as to why this decision was taken the reality is this decision by the court. of justice was no longer. and i just was don't. support any. litigation. almost 4 years since we started this. i have watched.

for the following is their spin on emotional torture shake a lot of logical torture. and it's near tame that. george hamilton relays that enough is enough on the day off the dangers sure are you see desert over to have proper place in the house to be a furnace and just as i do. every. so far we've identified 38 people who were involved in the murders of 120 past people who were members of the so-called security forces we've named most of them there may be others we don't know of very few spend a day in jail now that's too many people over a short few yaz involved in 120 murders in one geographic small geographical area to be explainable by the bad apples there as far as the victims were concerned they were just collateral damage in what was

a state systemic policy of collusion now as far as the family is a concern and they have the right to truth and justice some want apology and acknowledgment others want to have day in court will support whatever road they choose. well it's amazing how the truth comes out as george greenwich c.t. that said it comes like brought on to the door. and it has happened from time to time. some people have for the not conscious has taken them and they have revealed a different material and as years have gone by of course the family should been interested and of trying to find out the truth of what happened and who was responsible but at the same time a lot of our 3 killings having been shot in the church at the authorities today and they had to care for information about e.g. who do. yeah for our condition but but in comparison to the sure bunch of collusion

and the on salt it's not all good it's not very pretty. harsh going to get. on shushed and a justice at young asked and his style of not but. just out of a cup now. expose them. for what they did. to action made on ahead tell. the tale chill this plus more. they still got the police protection. and. i think it went to the very very top. i think it. crossed the water where politicians knew what was going on and gave the go ahead. on basically

the artichoke it would have been. doing a great job bodies. don't be getting cotton dropping also into problems. i suppose what still needs to be doen is the governing knowledge went over what actually helped the british theatre the period of the troubles to the period of the conflict take to protect themselves as a neutral arbiter at this stage that story doesn't stack up anymore the british were involved in the most killings they were involved with loyalist paramilitaries . i suppose my abiding hope would be that we can tell that story that we can honor those who lost their lives to the collusive acts of members of the security forces.
