Speaking in the House of Lords on 1 May 2025

Debate

Frozen Libyan Assets: Compensation for Victims of IRA Terrorism

Contribution

I am very pleased that the Minister said—I think—that they are still considering whether the elements of the Shawcross report can be published. On the legal issue, surely the best legal minds of His Majesty’s Government should be sitting down in a working party group with the victims’ best legal representatives—who are very good legal minds indeed, as I am sure the Minister knows—and working out the possibilities of what can actually be done without breaking international law.
