## Resource

Ireland just passed groundbreaking legislation allowing state officials—including former ministers, police, and military personnel—to testify under oath in the Omagh bombing inquiry, a move set to fuel evidential hearings starting in September. Designed to ensure full transparency, the law includes safeguards against national security risks and ongoing investigations. Justice Minister Jim O’Callaghan hailed it as a vital step toward truth and accountability for victims’ families, aligning with UK commitments to resolve Troubles legacy issues. This marks a major milestone in the long-awaited pursuit of justice. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
