HC Deb 17 June 1998 vol 314 c255W
29. Mr. Spring

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what assessment she has made of the current security situation. [44769]

Mr. Ingram

Since the signing of the Agreement on 10 April there have been four murders. In addition several attempts have been made to detonate explosive devices, thwarted by excellent work by the security forces, north and south. Sadly a continuing threat exists from some terrorist groups opposed to the Agreement. The security forces remain alert to deal with this.
