as part of a wider package to address the legacy of the past in Northern Ireland.</p><p><br>
As set out by the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland last week, the Government’s
proposed package focuses on reconciliation, information recovery and ending the cycle
of investigations that is not working for anyone.</p><p><br> The Government remains
clear however, that it will never accept any moral equivalence between those who upheld
the law in Northern Ireland and those, on all sides, who sought to destroy it.</p><p><br>
These proposals will be considered as part of the ongoing intensive talks process
with the NI parties, Irish Government and representatives of NI society, further to
which we will bring forward legislation.</p><p><br></p>
