Official Engagements
Dail Éireann — 2023-06-15
============================================================

Matt Carthy (SF), Cavan-Monaghan

I was at Talbot Street on the anniversary of the Dublin and Monaghan bombings again this year. I commend the Justice for the Forgotten group on ensuring the story of those bombings is more clear and evident, though it is not yet fully transparent because the British Government has refused to accede to wishes expressed on a number of occasions by this House for it to release all its information. Does the Tánaiste mention that when he meets with the British Prime Minister directly? Does he challenge the British Government to release their files on those bombings? Will he, in his next direct engagement with the Prime Minister, privately and publicly call on him to ensure the families of Dublin and Monaghan have what they deserve, which is the truth and perhaps even justice at some stage?
