Anniversary of the murder of Ken Smyth and Daniel McCormick
That this House marks the anniversary of the brutal murders of Ulster Defence Regiment Sergeant Kenneth Smyth and former Ulster Defence Regiment Soldier Daniel McCormick on 10 December 1971 by the IRA as they travelled to work; recognises that over five decades on, their families continue to grieve as no one has ever been brought to justice for this evil terrorist murder that saw these men brutally slain for no other reason than serving Queen and Country in the Ulster Defence Regiment and that the families still mourn their loss; notes the ongoing pain caused by the failure of those responsible to come forward with the truth; and extends heartfelt sympathy and support to all families in their enduring loss.
