Measures to address 'unfinished business' of Good Friday deal
September 20, 2025
|The Guardian
The Northern Ireland secretary has said new measures aiming to deal with crimes committed during the Troubles will address the “unfinished business” of the Good Friday peace agreement struck 27 years ago.
Hilary Benn said the “significant reforms” would replace the controversial Legacy Act 2023 brought in by the Conservative government, which he said had failed to confront the past, partly because it had been rejected by all five main political parties and victims' families.
However, the new plans hit trouble immediately, with one unionist leader denouncing the Irish government's involvement as “outrageous”.
Benn said “a perfect outcome is not obtainable” but that he hoped the measures would give answers to victims on both sides of the political divide, republican and loyalist.
