<p>As I set out in a Written Ministerial Statement on 17 April, I can confirm that
the ICRIR’s operational functions will be commenced and the Commission will be able
to receive requests and carry out reviews as planned on 1 May 2024 - the point at
which the Legacy Act automatically ends current investigations and inquests. From
this date, following a request in accordance with the Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy
and Reconciliation) Act 2023, the ICRIR will carry out reviews of Troubles-related
deaths and serious injuries that occurred between 1966 and 1998.</p>
