Political Correspondent Taoiseach Micheál Martin has told the Dáil that he will pursue both the British and Northern Irish authorities regarding the no-warning car-bomb attack on Belturbet, Co Cavan, in which two teenage civilians were murdered in 1972. Loyalist paramilitaries were responsible for the bombing which killed Geraldine O'Reilly, 15, and Paddy Stanley, 16. However there have also been allegations of collusion by British security forces in the attack. Mr Martin told the Dáil that he would pursue the matter "with the British authorities and the authorities in Northern Ireland" because the families involved have been "left with no answers" or closure.
