Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission

Motion Text

That this House deplores the political attack by the Chief Commissioner of the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission (NIHRC) on Sir Declan Morgan, Chief Commissioner of the Independent Commission for Reconciliation and Information Recovery and its Commissioner for Investigations, Peter Sheridan; repudiates the insinuation that members of the judiciary and former police officers cannot bring objectivity and fairness to legacy investigations; and calls on the NIHRC to operate within its statutory guardrails and desist from peddling its political narrative.
