Amharc ar fhreagraI am informed by the Garda authorities that, as the discovery of the remains of the person in question was adjudged not to fall within the terms of the Criminal Justice (Location of Victims' Remains) Act 1999, the Garda Síochána conducted a thorough forensic examination of the scene and the remains. I am further informed that the Garda Síochána has conducted inquiries to gather evidence and has also been in contact with the Police Service of Northern Ireland to advance the investigation.
