The Northern Ireland Veterans Commissioner has continued to represent the views, experiences and concerns of veterans living in Northern Ireland as the UK Government progresses its proposed changes to the Northern Ireland Troubles Bill.
Following the Government’s announcement of further amendments on Monday 12 October, attention now turns to the next stage of parliamentary scrutiny, with Committee Stage discussions scheduled for next week.
Throughout ongoing engagement with veterans, veterans’ organisations and key stakeholders, the Commissioner has sought to ensure that the experiences and concerns of those who served are recognised and considered as the legislation develops.
