Parliamentary Select Committee to investigate Easter attacks

A motion to set up a Parliamentary Select Committee to look into and report to Parliament on the terrorist attacks that took place on April 21 was approved in Parliament on Thrusday (22). 

The motion, signed by MPs from all parties represented in Parliament was approved unanimously. The Speaker will nominate members to the committee and its Chairperson. The committee will consist of a maximum of 12 members.

The committee will be tasked with investigating and reporting back to Parliament whether the law enforcement authorities possessed prior intelligence relating to the attacks; whether there were deficiencies in the State machinery that led to the inability to prevent such attacks or mitigate their effects; whether any other factors contributed to such terrorist attacks; what action should be taken to prevent such attacks in the future; and any other matters connected or incidental thereto.
