Taoiseach delivers State apology over Stardust fire

Taoiseach Simon Harris has said that the State failed the families of the Stardust tragedy when "you needed us the most".
Politicians and others gathered in the Dáil chamber applauded and got to their feet to welcome the Stardust families who gathered in the public gallery.
"I know there have been many times when you thought this day would never come," Mr Harris said.
"I know you were forced to endure a living nightmare which began when your loved ones were snatched from you in a devastating fire. I am deeply sorry you were made to fight for so long that they went to their graves never knowing the truth."
