Taoiseach Simon Harris issued apology in the Dáil on Tuesday, as those most affected by February 1981 tragedy looked on
The 48 victims of the Stardust nightclub tragedy in Dublin in 1981 and their families have received a formal apology from the Irish Government. The State apology comes less than a week after a jury ruled that the 48 deaths were "unlawful."
The Taoiseach delivered a State apology to the Stardust families following their 43-year fight for justice
‘It is to our great shame that State processes heaped misery upon tragedy for the Stardust families,’ said Harris.
Taoiseach Simon Harris has apologised on behalf of the State to the families and friends of those who died in the Stardust fire 43 years ago.
