Release of Police Ombudsman’s Report into the Kingsmill Massacre

That this Assembly condemns the callous, sectarian and terrorist murder of ten protestant workmen at Kingsmill on 5 January 1976; stands with the sole survivor, Mr Alan Black, and the bereaved families in their ongoing pursuit of truth and justice; deplores the failure of the Police Ombudsman for Northern Ireland to disclose the findings of the Office’s investigation within a reasonable timeframe; notes the urgency of this matter, given Mr Black’s age and health; and calls on the Police Ombudsman for Northern Ireland to release its investigation report, in relation to the Kingsmill atrocity, without further delay.
