Stardust families threaten anniversary protests unless inquiry details revealed

STARDUST families have issued an ultimatum to the Taoiseach warning they will begin protesting unless details of a promised independent examination are handed over.

The threatened protests at Government buildings and Bertie Ahern’s constituency office follow what the Stardust Victims’ Committee claim is a “complete breakdown in communications” since early December.

Prior to Christmas, Mr Ahern announced that an independent examination of the 1981 Stardust fire would be established and an eminent legal person appointed to oversee the process.
