Release of State records on North to change in line with UK

Cabinet will confirm the move after its weekly meeting this morning, which is also expected to see the heads of bill for new rules on judicial appointments published as part of a deal between Fine Gael and the Independent Alliance.
Under measures first revealed in October 2015, Ireland is planning to speed up the timescale for when it can release State records from the current 30-year delay to just 20 years.
