Libya: IRA
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government when they intend to release the report by William Shawcross on compensation for victims of IRA attacks and the use of semtex supplied by Libya.
- Answer
-
The UK Government has profound sympathy for UK victims of Qadhafi-sponsored Irish Republican Army (IRA) terrorism and indeed for all victims of the Troubles. The Shawcross report was commissioned by the previous government as an internal report drawing on a series of private and confidential conversations. We will keep decisions on publication regarding the Shawcross Report under review.
