Simon Harris 'hopes' Ireland can drop legacy legal case against UK Government
- Simon Harris 'hopes' Ireland can drop legacy legal case against UK Government - Northern Ireland Secretary Hilary Benn this week set out the Government's plan to repeal and replace the previous government's Legacy Act.
Simon Harris, Ireland's new Taoiseach, has expressed his desire to resolve the long-standing legal dispute with the UK government over the UK's Legacy Act, which provides immunity for Troubles-related crimes in exchange for cooperation with a new truth recovery body. Harris, who assumed office recently, aims to find a resolution that would allow both nations to move forward, focusing on the future rather than past conflicts. He mentioned this during his first meeting with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, indicating a willingness to engage in discussions to potentially drop the case. This comes at a time when the UK government is also looking to improve relations with Ireland, especially in light of upcoming elections and the need for cooperation on various fronts including migration and security.
