The UK Government’s proposed Bill to deal with Northern Ireland’s troubled past is “perpetrator-friendly and perpetrator-focused”, the head of a victims’ group has said.
Sandra Peake, of the Wave Trauma Centre, said victims and survivors are fearful of the ramifications of the proposed immunity for information deal which has been mooted.
The Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy and Reconciliation) Bill envisages offering immunity from prosecution to people who are deemed to have co-operated with the information retrieval body.
