IRA to pinpoint graves of victims

A COMMISSION to oversee the recovery of bodies of missing IRA murder victims could be in operation by the end of the month. The British-Irish panel will liaise with the IRA to pinpoint the graves of nine victims known as "the Disappeared", and return the remains to their families.

Legislation establishing the commission and the amnesty is to be rushed through the House of Commons and the Irish Parliament within the next few days and the laws should come into effect by April 30, sources confirmed.
