NEW statement from Sinn Fein: British Government continuing to obstruct truth and justice ā€“ Finucane Sinn FĆ©in MP John Finucane has responded to the Secretary of State Chris Bryants comments on legacy today. Mr Finucane said: ā€œFamilies have been campaigning for truth and justice for their loved ones for decades. ā€œSuccessive British Governments have obstructed that basic human right by refusing to implement the legacy mechanisms agreed at Stormont House almost 12 years ago. ā€œAny legacy process must be centred on the rights of victims and families rather than protecting the state or any group within it. Equality before the law is fundamental, and fairness must apply to everyone, without exception. ā€œAnything less will simply repeat the mistakes of the past and leave families waiting yet again for the truth and justice they have been denied for far too long.ā€

NEW from Chris Bryant Statement from the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland ā€œIā€™ve been in post for a few weeks now and already Iā€™ve seen time and again how many people in Northern Ireland and Great Britain are still living with the legacy of the Troubles, often with pain and grief and anger. This week Iā€™ve met WAVE,Ā  the Victims and Survivorsā€™ Forum, SEFF,Ā  the Victimsā€™ Commissioner Joe McVey, the Veterans Commissioner David Johnstone, and held a roundtable with veterans. I also visited the RUC Memorial Garden, which marks the service and sacrifice of officers, including those that were killed during the Troubles. Ā  I have wanted to sit down and listen to as many people and groups as possible, to get their perspectives and insights. These are my key observations so far. We can't shape the future unless we deal with the past. And we have to get answers for families, including the many families of Armed Forces personnel who were killed. Ā  The Government remains absolutely committed to the Northern Ireland Troubles Bill, which will continue its progress through Parliament as soon as possible. Ā  Iā€™m acutely conscious that this Bill is our last chance to properly address legacy issues and get as many answers as we can for those who are still living with the legacy of the Troubles. Ā  I want to ensure the Bill helps as many people impacted by the Troubles as possible get the answers they have long sought, and commands the confidence of those affected - including those who served bravely to protect law and order.ā€

6am NEW statement from UUP: Statement from Ulster Unionist Party Leader Jon Burrows Ā  Jon Burrows MLA said: ā€œI want to thank Mike Nesbitt for his service as Minister of Health. He took on arguably the hardest job in government and approached it with seriousness, integrity and a determination to improve our health service. The direction he set on reform, on tackling health inequalities and on driving down waiting lists was the right one, and that work will continue. ā€œI will be discussing the health brief with party colleagues over the coming days and expect to confirm a nomination soon. Whoever takes on the role will have the full backing of the Ulster Unionist Party and our Assembly team. ā€œThe immediate priority remains putting patients first: reducing waiting lists and improving access to GPs, wait times in A&E, diagnostics, treatment and surgery right across Northern Ireland. Important work is already under way and a change of Minister will not interrupt it. ā€œThere is also no escaping the need for meaningful reform. The Ulster Unionist Party has never shied away from that. But how we deliver reform is every bit as important as what we ultimately decide. ā€œSafe, sustainable services must be the overriding priority. Reform must also address health inequalities and regional imbalance, and recognise that people in different parts of Northern Ireland do not currently enjoy equal access to timely healthcare. That means looking at the whole picture: workforce pressures, recruitment and retention, the risk of losing vital clinical skills and capacity, ambulance and travel times, sustainability, patient outcomes, and the particular needs of different communities. ā€œClinical evidence must be central to decision making, but reform cannot simply be done to communities. There must be genuine engagement with the clinicians and staff delivering services and with the people who depend on them. I don't believe we have got that balance right, and the strength of feeling around Causeway shows what happens when communities feel decisions are arriving rather than being made with them. ā€œI want to see a Northern Ireland wide conversation about the future of our health service, in which the evidence, risks, costs, benefits and alternatives are transparent, and people can have confidence their concerns have genuinely been heard. ā€œThe responsibilities carried by the Department of Health are immense. The next Minister will be committed to the transformation and reform of our health service, while ensuring it commands the greatest possible public and professional confidence. ā€œThe Ulster Unionist Party took the health brief because we believed it mattered more than it was convenient. That has not changed. We have a duty of care to everyone in Northern Ireland, and we remain determined to build a health service that is safer, faster and fairer.ā€
