The following is the full text of an e-mail news bulletin, regarding evidence given at the oireachtas justice sub-committee hearing of Wednesday, 4 October 2006, into the fourth Barron report on the Dundalk bombing and other collusion atrocities. The e-mail was received 6 October 2006, from the Pat Finucane Centre in Derry.
PFC at parliamentary committee On Wednesday of this week the PFC gave evidence to the Dail joint parliamentary committee in Dublin concerning the activities of the 'Glenanne gang' in the murder triangle in the 1970s. The transcript can be accessed here; One of the official documents referred to in evidence and titled Subversion in the UDR can be accessed through the PFC link below. It is ironic that the Dail transcript should become available today against the backdrop of the British Royal visit to Belfast to bestow honours on the Royal Irish Regiment. The locally based units of the RIR, which evolved from the UDR, are to be disbanded. The BBC devoted two hours of live TV coverage to the ceremony which saw Queen 'Lisbeth heap praise on the men who had apparently helped bring peace to the 'province'. The UDR was heavily infiltrated by loyalist paramiiltaries and was the most important source of weapons for loyalist groups and was known to be so by the Ministry of Defence as is made clear in the document below.
