Status

The term provision is used to describe a definable element in a piece of legislation that has legislative effect – such as a Part, Chapter or section. A version of a provision is prospective either:

  1. where the provision (Part, Chapter or section) has never come into force or;
  2. where the text of the provision is subject to change, but no date has yet been appointed by the appropriate person or body for those changes to come into force.

Commencement Orders listed in the ‘Changes to Legislation’ box as not yet applied may bring this prospective version into force.

The historical record of deathsU.K.

28Production of the historical recordU.K.

(1)The historical record is to consist of a single document which gives an account of the circumstances in which each of the relevant deaths occurred.

(2)The ICRIR must take all reasonable steps—

(a)to identify all deaths that were caused by conduct forming part of the Troubles, and

(b)to identify and obtain—

(i)the information about the relevant deaths that is publicly available, and

(ii)other information about the relevant deaths which the ICRIR considers is likely to be of use in producing the historical record.

(3)The ICRIR may request a person to provide information in connection with the production of the historical record.

(4)But the ICRIR may not request information that relates to the relevant death, or to the relevant event, to be provided by—

(a)a member of the family of the deceased person,

(b)a person who suffered physical or mental harm as a result of the relevant event, or

(c)a member of the family of a person—

(i)whose death was caused by conduct forming part of the relevant event, or

(ii)who was caused physical or mental harm by conduct forming part of the relevant event.

(5)That does not prevent the ICRIR from making a request to a person in their capacity as the holder of an employment, office or other position.

(6)A person may provide information if requested to do so by the ICRIR, but only if the provision of the information would not breach—

(a)any obligation of confidence owed by the person, or

(b)any other restriction on the disclosure of information (however imposed).

(7)When deciding whether it is reasonable to take a particular step for the purposes of subsection (2)(a) or (b), the ICRIR may, in particular, take into account whether that step would, in the ICRIR’s view, involve disproportionate effort or cost.

(8)In this section—

  • relevant deaths” means those deaths which the ICRIR identifies, after taking all reasonable steps in accordance with subsection (2)(a), as deaths that were caused by conduct forming part of the Troubles, except those deaths for which reviews are carried out under section 13;

  • relevant event” means an event in which a relevant death occurred.

29Publication of the historical recordU.K.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
