"Madam President, unfortunately most people have left at this stage but I want to draw the House's attention to the murder by loyalist paramilitaries last Friday of Martin O'Hagan, a journalist. This is just one more example of the grave human rights situation in Northern Ireland. Human rights lawyers have been assassinated as well by loyalist paramilitaries. Only a few years ago, Rosemarie Nelson, the mother of a young family, was assassinated by loyalist paramilitaries because she was a human rights lawyer. There is a serious matter. We often debate resolutions in this House about human rights lawyers and journalists being assassinated in the exercise of their duty in other parts of the world. Here is a situation within the European Union that has been going on for a long time. The situation is extremely grave. Journalists have the right to expose wrongdoings, human rights lawyers have the right enshrined in international law to represent people in courts. Yet they are being prevented from doing so and in fact, those brave enough to do so have lost their lives. It is a real tragedy."@en1
