Proceeding contribution from Mark Durkan (Social Democratic & Labour Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 22 March 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Justice and Northern Ireland.
Justice and Northern Ireland
I thank the Minister for giving way. In the context of his reference to people still suffering pain and hurt, will he acknowledge that there is a family in my constituency who are grieving as a result of a recent murder by the Real IRA? They have serious questions about MI5's involvement in the background to that murder—the interest to which it was subjecting that young man, the surveillance and the attention that it was giving him—and they are left believing that MI5 knows more about his murder than has been disclosed. I know that the family got the opportunity to talk to the Secretary of State, too. This is a very real issue in that context. Does the Minister acknowledge that and how does he see it being addressed? What assurances can he give that family?
