Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said he will make a decision in the coming weeks on whether to launch a legal challenge against the UK government’s Legacy Bill.
As the Bill moved a step closer to becoming law, Amnesty International said it was “dark day” for justice and urged the Irish Government to challenge it through the European Court of Human Rights.
