Title
Troubles legacy act: Ireland takes human rights case against UK
Abstract
The Irish government is to begin a legal challenge against the UK government over its decision to offer immunity for Troubles-era crimes. The UK's controversial Troubles legacy act became law in September, despite opposition from Dublin and all Northern Ireland's main political parties. Critics argued the law gave an amnesty and removed access to justice.
