The total number of ‘on the runs’ considered by the administrative scheme and the outcome of their cases are set out in some detail in Chapter 7 of the Hallett Report. Lady Justice Hallett found that 156 ‘on the runs’ were sent individual letters between 2000, when the scheme was established by the previous government, and 2012, via Sinn Féin, informing them that they were not wanted.
