Lawyers for relatives of four members of a family murdered in two loyalist attacks in Co Tyrone have expressed hope that inquests into the deaths can resume later this year.

It came as a barrister for the PSNI told a hearing at Laganside Courthouse in Belfast that a timescale for disclosure of police material around the deaths was “not feasible”.
