Introduction
1.These explanatory notes relate to the Northern Ireland (Location of Victims’ Remains) Act 1999 which received Royal Assent on 26th May 1999. They have been provided by the Northern Ireland Office to assist the reader in understanding the Act. They do not form part of the Act and have not been endorsed by Parliament.
2.These notes need to be read in conjunction with the Act. They are not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Act. So where a section or part of a section does not seem to require any explanation or comment, none is given.
