Jennifer Carroll MacNeill (FG), Dún Laoghaire

Last week, the Taoiseach, utterly correctly, gave the support of the Government and this House to an inquiry into the murder of Pat Finucane, a lawyer murdered in Northern Ireland in the late 1980s, as did a Seanad motion, the Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement, of which I am a member, and the Alliance Party, as an absolute imperative for the rule of law. Will the Taoiseach join with me in acknowledging the anniversary this week of another lawyer murdered in Northern Ireland, Edgar Graham, a unionist lawyer and academic who was murdered on the grounds of Queen's University Belfast? It is just as important to acknowledge his death as that of any other lawyer in Northern Ireland.
