Families who have fought for justice for their loved ones who died in the nightclub blaze met Irish premier Simon Harris.
Irish premier Simon Harris has “apologised unreservedly” to the families of the 48 people killed in a fire at a Dublin nightclub in 1981.
After the meeting at Government Buildings in Dublin, campaigners said they had been invited to the Dail on Tuesday for an official apology. That ruling was dismissed in 2009, leading to the latest inquests for the victims, who were aged from 16 to 27 and mostly came from the surrounding north Dublin area.
“More than 70 people came to the Department of the Taoiseach today. However, I am acutely aware that the number affected by Stardust is many, many multiples of that. “I have listened closely to everything the families told me and as Taoiseach, I have today apologised unreservedly to each family. I will do so on behalf of the State on Tuesday next.”
