HC Deb 03 March 1975 vol 887 c323W
Mr. Carson

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland (1) how much compensation has been paid by the Government to loyalist detainees or ex-internees; and what claims are still outstanding;

(2) how much compensation has been paid by the Government to IRA detainees and ex-internees; and what claims are still outstanding.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

It is not possible to identify claimants who were, or are, detainees or ex-internees from other categories of claimant without a disproportionate use of staff time. No record is maintained of the particular affiliations of individual claimants.
