Question to the Northern Ireland Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what progress they have made in bringing forward legislative proposals to address legacy issues in Northern Ireland.

The Government has been clear that we will introduce legislation to address the legacy of the Troubles in Northern Ireland in a way that focuses on reconciliation, delivers for victims from all communities, and ends the cycle of re-investigations that has failed victims and veterans alike.

While progress on this has, like other priorities, been affected by the challenging wider circumstances presented by the ongoing Covid-19 situation, we remain committed to making progress as quickly as possible, and to working with all parts of the community in Northern Ireland as part of this process.
